alias_sqbrSo I was planning on making these macarons but on rereading the recipe realised that it actually listed two types of sugar, which taken together were more than twice the amount of all the other ingredients put together. This was not the sort of biscuit I had in mind.
Some brief googling got me this recipe for hazelnut macaroons which pretty much reverses the sugar:hazelnut meal ratio, and OMG SO TASTY. Gluten free too, afaict! I didn't add the chocolate, btw, but I can see that being tasty.
I tried sandwiching two together with nutella and..yum. Mmm.
The plan was to bring them to Margaret's tomorrow, but uh..they may not survive :)
We got the hazelnut meal for free from some of Cam's friends who moved over east and were emptying their pantry, I have a nasty feeling that when I see how much it costs I shall not make these again :(
