Wow, those macarons look so amazing! Like gleaming jewels!
This recipe brings together two of my favorite things: Matcha and Macarons. Genius!
These are so perfect looking - perfect tops and skirts! And I know how hard they are to make to look like this!!
Hey!
Just wanted to know how long shud I bake those macarons. I tried baking it for 15 mins but then when I touched it, it sticked to my finger. So I baked it for another 15 mins and It became brown and tasted like crispy cookies. How will I know if my macaron is done?
