Prom Macarons
My oldest daughter had her junior prom last night and I was in charge of dinner for her and her group of friends. Her lunch table are my macaron flavor “taste testers” and the girls all wanted my macarons for dessert. Each girl picked their favorite flavor and I got to work. I made over 250 so I could send some home with them the next morning. (All the girls stayed at my house last night too.) They are still not perfect, but Crystals recipe gave me so much more confidence going into this weekend and I’m so thankful. Flavors were: Pina Colada buttercream with Mango Curd Birthday Cake Buttercream Key Lime Pie Lemon buttercream with raspberry curd Banana Milkshake White Chocolate Ganache Cotton Candy buttercream Peanut Butter buttercream with brownie batter center Wild blueberry white chocolate ganache with lemon curd center

First try!
Okay this is my fifth time trying macaroons but my first time using your recipe. And I'm not going to lie your recipe intrigued me because it only uses the mixer but also dumping raw egg whites into my meringue was a crazy thought. The first tray almost perfect! Slightly lopsided on the back side of the tray that was like deepest in my oven. So I decided for the second batch to rotate the tray halfway through. And as soon as I rotated the tray and set it back down every one of them cracked 😭 I also have a convection oven and I forgot to turn my fan off. Overall I'm super happy. And the fact that I can do the macronage with my mixer is crazy!!

3rd attemp with Crystals Recipe / Oven adjusment help needed
I tried again tonight and I got those full shells!🤩 But war isnt over yet 🥲 please HELP! 🆘 my oven is a big problem right now: 1) I need to set dial to 180/190°C to achieve the 160°C as recipe suggests. Nonetheless it runs down to 150°C 2) GOLDING FEET and SHELLS! Even that I am currently working with the oven around 150°C they are baking too fast! At 7 min the shells are already set and done, wiggle test is perfect. But the dough may stick for some macs but mainly all others are getting golden feet! Furthermore, the shells browned little bit with second batch! 😭 I use a light pink batter, I used same setting for darker color and it was okay… 3) WRINKLES. This morning I tried again to make half single batch and all of my Macs wrinkled! The last batch tonight had same issue. I’ve noticed one thing: they both were oven drying under 100°C. May that be the reason? I’m really unsatisfied with my oven. Seems I need to wait until the temp hits the peak back, because I’ll work it open doors. Pleas, share some tips and ideas! 😭
