Step-by-Step Instructions for Cadbury Egg Macarons
- Start by separating the egg whites from their yolks, allowing the whites to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Sift together 1 cup of almond flour and 1 cup of confectioners' sugar.
- In a clean mixing bowl, whip the egg whites with cream of tartar using an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add granulated sugar, whipping until stiff peaks form.
- Fold the sifted almond flour and confectioners' sugar into the meringue using a rubber spatula, being careful to maintain volume.
- Continue folding the mixture until it reaches a flowing consistency. Test the mixture for the right texture.
- Transfer the macaron batter into a piping bag and pipe 1.5-inch circles onto baking sheets. Leave space between each dollop and tap the sheets to remove air bubbles.
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Bake the macarons for 19 to 23 minutes, until the tops are solid and a foot forms around the edges.
- To make the ganache, heat heavy cream in a saucepan until simmering. Pour over chocolate morsels and butter, stir until smooth. Mix in pulsed mini eggs and vanilla extract.
- Pair cooled macaron shells by size, pipe ganache onto one shell, and gently sandwich it with another shell.
- Refrigerate assembled macarons overnight to allow flavors to meld and shells to soften slightly.
