Instructions to make Easy French Macarons:

(The bigger pieces makes the Macarons lumpy and cracked during baking) whisk with electric mixer, the egg whites and salt until they form soft peaks (making sure utensils are grease free).

The more vibrant the colour, the more fun! 6) I wouldn't necessarily add any flavoring to the Macarons. I would flavor them by using different
