in honor of their birthdays, i wanted to share this ridiculous-amazing macaron recipe we created. and after you’ve plotted YOUR batch, would you click over to visit her and say “hi,” and “happy birthday?”
we used martha stewart’s easy french macarons recipe. to this, we added a teaspoon of powdered espresso and half a teaspoon of coffee extract.
then we created an espresso buttercream with salted butter, espresso powder, confectioner’s sugar, and vanilla. we devoured them all delivered most of this batch to a lovely lady’s bridal shower.
