     Chocolate Cherry French Macarons

Category   Desserts - Breads
Sub Category   None

Ingredients
1 3/4 C conf sugar
2 C almond flour
2 Large egg whites
Italian meringue
1C granulated sugar
2 Large egg whites
pinch of cream of tartar
Filling
1/2 C butter at room temperature
 
1 1/2 C conf sugar
1/4 C unsweetened cocoa powder
marachino cherry juice

Instructions
Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper
Make cookie base. Using a fine mesh strainer sift together the conf sugar and almond flour. Add egg whites and stir until the mixture is moistened. Make the Italian meringue. Place the 1 C sugar in a small saucepan add about 2 tbl water and stir with your finger until the sugar is moistened. Wet your finger and wipe down the sides of the pan to remove any sugar on the sides of the pan. Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Meanwhile. Place the egg whites in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add the remaining 1 tbl of sugar and cream of tartar. Turn the mixer on low to medium. Once the sugar has dissolved in the saucepan take a pastry brush dipped in water and wash down the sides of the pan. Turn to medium high and cook until it reaches 244 on a candy thermometer.
When the egg whites have volume but are still soft, turn the mixture to low and slowly drizzle the sugar mixture into the egg whites between the side of the bowl and the outer reach of the whisk. Turn the speed up to medium and continue to whip until the outside of the bowl has cooled off and the whites are firm and glossy but not dry about 5 minutes.
Add a small amount of the meringue to the cookie base and stir it in with a spatula. This will lighten up the mixture. Add in a few drops of red food coloring. Add the remaining meringue in 3 batches folding them gently into the mixture. When the meringue is completely incorporated continue to fold the mixture over until the mixture forms a ribbon that settles slowly into the mixture. Heat oven to 350. Transfer the mixture to a piping bag with large round tip. Pipe the mixture onto the prepared sheets in quarter size rounds. Let the cookies stand at room temp 15 min. Bake the pans 8-10 min until they are risen and set but not brown. Cool. Mix filling ingredients and pipe onto cookie top with 2nd cookie
