Cinnamon Roll Macarons image

These macarons are a winter/fall staple for me-inspired by the classic cinnamon roll, they are a delicious treat for a cold or snowy day. These pair well with a mug of tea, and can be eaten as a dessert or just a snack. Try custard, mousse, ganache, or any other buttercream as fillings, too. -Elizabeth Ding, El Cerrito, California

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor and texture of your macarons.
Make sure your almond flour is finely ground. If it's too coarse, it will make your macarons grainy.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixed batter will make your macarons tough.
Be patient when baking the macarons. It takes time for them to rise and bake properly.
Let the macarons cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent them from cracking.
