Is A Macaron A Cake?

I don’t know, but it sure is delicious! I have made this recipe twice, and both times the cake was a big hit. I’ve also included the recipes for both the chocolate and the vanilla layers, so you can try them both out and see which one you like better.

If you want to make this cake look good (and maybe impress some guests), I recommend trying the vanilla layer first. Then if it comes out well, try again with the chocolate layer. This recipe makes one 8 inch round cake.

How To Make Macaron Cake Recipe?

Ingredients

Vanilla Macarons

2/3 cup confectioners sugar (powdered sugar)
1 1/2 cups almond meal (ground almonds)
3 tablespoons granulated white sugar
3 large egg whites, room temperature
1/3 cup granulated white sugar (for the macaron shells)

Prepare

Step 1.

Preheat your oven to 300 degrees F. Grease your baking tray, line it with parchment paper, and then set aside.

Step 2.

Mix the confectioner’s sugar, almond meal, and white sugar until combined in a large bowl. Then add the egg whites and mix for about 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and shiny.

Step 3.

Transfer the mixture to a piping bag with a large round tip. Pipe the mixture onto your prepared baking tray, and make sure to leave about 1/4 inch of space at the top. Gently smooth out any bumps or cracks that you may have.

Step 4.

Bake for 30 minutes or until the edges of the macarons start to turn golden brown, then let them cool down on a wire rack.

Step 5.

Once they are cooled, pipe chocolate filling on top of each macaron shell.

What Is The Trick To Making Macarons?

The moisture in the air can make a macaron fail, so if you intend to bake them outside, keep them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before putting them in the oven.

How Do You Put Macaroons On A Cake?

The macarons in the recipe are a single layer, so it will be easier to put macaroons in a cake. Instead of piping the whole thing, cut out a circle from the middle of each shell. Then carefully pipe your filling into the middle of one macaron and sandwich it together.

To place them on a cake, I suggest cutting through all of them and putting them on top first to see if there are any gaps or if you have enough space between each one to work with. Then fill in any gaps with the remaining macarons.
