TWD - Basque Macarons


For Tuesday with Dorie this week, I chose to make Basque Macarons.  These are biscuits made with egg whites, almond meal, sugar, cinnamon and salt.

I spooned the batter onto the trays for baking, as I found that the batter just stuck in a cookie scoop.

The resulting cookies look quite good, despite not being as showy as their colourful Parisian cousins, and they taste delicious.  I think two biscuits sandwiched together with icecream would be perfect.

To see what everyone else made this week, visit the LYL section of the TWD website.

  2. I like that they are less fancy than the french cousins - suits me fine - look quite tasty

  5. Ice cream makes everything taste better. These cookies are not a looker but they taste good. I was worried about taking them to the party but they disappeared.
