Hi Luba! 🙂 Awesome! Sometimes they just need to stand long enough to form a film over the top. Very happy they worked out for you!! Sometimes it takes a couple tries. You’ll love the cake!
Thank you for watching! Glad I can share my recipes with everyone! 🙂

I’m sure you will do just fine! Just make sure to let them stand for at least an hour so they form their “shell”. Good luck!!

Hi! 🙂 I do hope you had success! I actually don’t have the measurements in cups/spoons. Macarons are so tricky and require precise measurements that I recommend using a scale. Here’s a link to my friends food blog; she has a recipe in cups/spoons. Hope this helps! Cheers 🙂 http://momsdish.com/recipe/469/coffee-macarons-recipe

Hi! I’ve tried this recipe 2 times and the first time I got no feet and it was just a flat cookie. The second time I tried it, I baked it but the bottom was already brown and almost beginning to burn but the middle was still super wet. Then after I took it out to let cool the macaroon just collapsed and wrinkled. Any tips? I really want to try and make a successful batch. Thx!!!

Hi there! Sorry that the first 2 tries didn’t go over well! These cookies can me tricky to make! Regarding the feet – make sure to let the cookies stand long enough to form little shells, sometimes this can take up to 1 1/2 hrs. Mixing the batter gently and thoroughly is also important. Sounds like your oven may be too hot for the cookies. Try decreasing the temperature by 15-20 degrees; the cookies will bake for longer but they won’t brown this way. Best of luck for next time!

Hi Tatyana,

But i didnt get the feet. I let it sit for 3 hours. I also noticed there’s a bit of water separating from it.
Any tips?
Thanks.

Hi there! 🙂 Hmm, sounds like the egg whites started to separate perhaps… Make sure they reach the right consistency, stiff peaks, and don’t overbeat them. You shouldn’t have to wait for 3 hours, that may be another culprit. Macarons are very sensitive to humidity so make sure to check the weather/humidity in your area before making! Good luck for next time! These are my favorite! 🙂

I tried making these a few days ago and it took a while for the cookies to get that hard shell. it was over an hr. I still didn’t get feet but they did rise. Another thing I learned (my first time making these) if you don’t beat/mix the dulce de leche and butter long enough till it becomes thick..your icing will be runny!!
Thanks for the videos, they are really helpful!- Reply

Hi there! Sounds like you were making these cookies on a day with high humidity. If it’s raining and wet outside, these cookies can take FOREVER to form a shell! I try to pick a dry and sunny day to make these. And yes, make sure to whisk that butter! 🙂

Do you have any tips for someone who has never made macrons before? I’m making some to decorate the cake that I’m going to make for a friend. I just want to make sure I do it correctly

I highly recommend using a kitchen scale to measure the ingredients accurately. Other than that, try not to overmix the batter. It should ribbon off your spatula and settle down in about 10 seconds. And, wait for a shell to form on the macarons before baking, otherwise they will crack

Hi tatyana!!! Love trying your recipies…baked ultimate birthday cake n turned out awesome.
Tried these macroons today following the scale ..the shell dried well before baking for one n a half hour…the first tray turned out gud …crisp from out but after cooling while removing from paper the bottom layer sticked to the paper…is it because i immediately transfered the sheet to wire rack…i even calibrated my oven…baked for fifteen min n turned the side inbetween too…
Second tray i baked little longer n i left it to cool in the same tray for few min before transferring the sheet on wire rack …this one came out clean but too crisp…can u suggest me where am i going wrong…just to bring to ur notice ,while making sugar syrup i stopped the heat at 250 f…n waited to let it cool to 240 ..while doing that the syrup got little stiff, drying, n i carried on the rest process..hope that is k… also they dont fluff up mch…n should it be like cake from inside or all crisp…thanx
Regards shradha..

Hi Tatyana, what is the standard cup size used in the measurements? Even your recipe here says half cup butter. Also please suggest as alternative to dulche de leche in this recipe as this is not commonly available in the area I live in.

Hi! I use american standard measuring cups for all of my recipes. For the dulce de leche, try substituting it with a store-bought caramel, or you can make my ‘Home-Made Caramel Sauce’ and store it in the refrigerator for it to set. https://tatyanaseverydayfood.com/recipe-items/caramel-sauce/

Hello! Since this recipe used the sugar syrup to make an Italian meringue, I assumed it would be the same as all the other Italian macaron recipes I’ve used. I was a bit surprised when you chose not to mix the egg whites into the almond flour, confectioners sugar, and coffee powder. Why do you do this instead of mixing them to make a paste before adding the meringue? Thanks!

Hi! I’ve tried it both ways and I find that the paste gets too thick, then it’s hard to mix in the meringue and I end up overmixing the batter.

Hi Tatyana,
So I made these macarons twice now. I love love love the taste. I DID have to bake them longer than the recommended time because they were still wet from the bottom after cooling and sticking to surface. I put them back in the oven twice to finish baking. I have a electric convection oven. But after all that they turned out perfect. Came off the mat easily no sticking and after a night in the fridge they are tha bomb!!! Thank you!- Reply

Salted or unsalted butter?

I always recommend unsalted butter for baking – you can control the saltiness much better! 🙂

Hi, can you make these and freeze them? I would like to use them for cake decoration only. Thank you
- Reply

Yes! I have frozen macarons before with no issues. Just place them into a sealed container, preferably glass, so they don’t absorb any freezer aroma.

Hi! I didn’t see you add confectioners sugar to the dulce de leche and burger for the filling in your video. Did you leave it out? It even looks different than your salted caramel frosting video.

Hi! Yes, the filling in my video is a little different from my salted caramel frosting. Both options will work great; I personally enjoy these macarons with my newer frosting.

Hi! Do you think if I omitted the coffee, it would be a nice salted caramel macaron instead? I’ve seen recipes that use brown sugar to make the biscuit itself to have a caramel flavour, do you think that would effect the finished product? Sorry about all these questions! I’m just super new to macarons and I tried your lemon ones yesterday, and they were absolutely wonderful!

Hi Abby! These would be fantastic as salted caramel macarons, without the coffee. I personally have never tried using brown sugar. I’m always very careful with adding different sugars as they can affect the recipe. Let me know if you try it and it works.! I’m so glad you enjoyed the lemon macarons! Those are so zesty and lemony! 🙂

Hi! I use your raspberry macaron recipe all the time!! I love how well you described the process!! Totally made sense!! My question is: how many macarons are the nutrition facts based on? One cookie, the whole batch, a certain amount? What’s the serving size? TIA
- Reply
- tatyanaseverydayfood
Hi Martha! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the raspberry macarons! Those are one of my favorites 🙂 For my macaron recipes, I calculate the nutritional info per cookie. For the caramel macarons, I typically get 20 cookies per batch, so the facts are for 1 out of 20 cookies. Let me know if you have any further questions and hope you enjoy these, too!
