Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 egg white
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup almond flour
⅓ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon matcha
¼ cup cream cheese, room temperature
½ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon milk

Steps:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Add ½ of the granulated sugar and with mixer on high, continue to beat until egg whites are stiff peaks. Repeat with last ½ of sugar, beating until whites are shiny and fluffy.
  • Using a fine mesh strainer, sieve the almond flour, powdered sugar, and matcha into the bowl with the egg whites. Discard any large pieces that remain in the strainer. Fold until just combined
  • Preheat oven to 300˚F (150˚C).
  • Fill a piping bag with the macaron mixture and pipe 1½-inch (4 cm) dollops onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Let the cookies rest until they are no longer wet to the touch and a skin forms on top (can be up to 1 hour).
  • When the cookies are dry to the touch, bake at 300˚F (150˚C) for 15 minutes.
  • While resting, make the filling by mixing the cream cheese, powdered sugar and milk in a bowl until smooth. Transfer to a piping bag and set aside until ready to fill.
  • Let rest for 10 minutes, or until cool before filling. Pipe the cream cheese mixture on the macron and sandwich with another one.
  • Enjoy!

MATCHA MACAROON MONSTERS



Matcha Macaroon Monsters image

Macaroons are traditionally made around Passover since they don't have any leaveners, but I make them all year round because they're delicious! This version has my favorite natural green food coloring, matcha, to make them look like monsters.

Time 40m

Yield 20 to 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup (283 grams) sweetened condensed milk (reserve the rest of the can to add to your morning coffee!)
1 tablespoon culinary-grade matcha
One 14-ounce (396-gram) bag sweetened shredded coconut
2 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
Coarse silver sanding sugar, for dipping
Candy eyeballs, for decorating

Steps:

  • Place an oven rack in the middle position. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the condensed milk and matcha. Mix in the coconut and set aside.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, add the egg whites and salt. Using a hand mixer, beat until stiff peaks form. Using a rubber spatula, fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture. Spoon lightly packed 2-inch balls (you can use a 2-inch cookie scoop or weigh 1.5 ounces) of the mixture onto the baking sheets, spaced 1 inch apart.
  • Bake in the oven until golden brown; begin checking for doneness at 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes on the pans. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Allow the baking sheets to cool completely. You'll use them again.
  • Melt the chocolate in a microwave in 30-second increments, stirring after each, or in a heat-safe bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring often. Dip the bottoms of the macaroons in the chocolate, scraping off any excess. Then dip in the silver sanding sugar and return to the parchment-lined baking sheet. Attach the candy eyeballs using the chocolate as glue. Let the macaroons set at room temperature or in the fridge. Enjoy!
  • The macaroons can be kept at room temperature for about 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality matcha powder for the best flavor.
  • Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature before you start baking.
  • Beat the egg whites until they are stiff peaks before adding the sugar.
  • Fold the matcha powder into the meringue gently so as not to deflate it.
  • Pipe the macaron batter onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving space between each macaron.
  • Let the macarons rest for 30 minutes before baking so that they can develop a skin.
  • Bake the macarons in a preheated oven at 325°F for 12-15 minutes, or until they are set and have a matte finish.
  • Let the macarons cool completely before filling them.

Conclusion:

Matcha macarons are a delicious and elegant treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make, but they do require a little bit of patience. By following these tips, you can make perfect matcha macarons every time.
