  • 1/2 cup super fine white sugar
  • Brown gel food coloring

  • 1 cup marshmallow fluff
  • 1/4 cup hot chocolate powder

  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate (for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line your baking sheets with silicone mats.
  2. Sift together the super fine almond flour, confectioners’ sugar, and Dutch processed cocoa powder in a mixing bowl.
  3. Whisk the egg whites and super fine white sugar in a mixer until stiff peaks form.
  4. Fold the sifted dry ingredients into the meringue until fully combined.
  5. Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip and pipe the macarons onto your prepared baking sheets.
  6. Let the piped macarons sit at room temperature until a thin skin forms on top.
  7. Bake the macarons for 15-20 minutes until they feel firm to the touch.
  8. Allow the macarons to cool on the silicone mats before gently removing them.
  9. Beat together unsalted butter, marshmallow fluff, hot chocolate powder, and vanilla until smooth for the filling.
  10. Spread a generous dollop of filling on one macaron half and top with another to create a sandwich.
  11. Melt semi-sweet chocolate and drizzle it over the assembled macarons, then top with dehydrated mini marshmallows.
