I’ve given in, like so many people, to the matcha craze I like to call matcha mania. I love the earthy, almost gritty taste of matcha, and so I thought it would work wonderfully with the sweet, delicate nature of French Macarons. Something about the crisp, dewy, and airy textures of the cookie make for decadent treat. And so with matcha and macaron on my mind, I decided to embark on the difficult task of making these sweet creations. <br /> <br />For the filling, I kept it simple with a white chocolate ganache. The buttery richness of the white chocolate is enough to balance out the deep, bitter flavors of the matcha. Also the ganache super easy to make (and lets be honest, after fastidiously making the macarons, the last thing you want is a finicky filling). You could obviously use any chocolate you’d like for the ganache, or keep it simple with your favorite jam or buttercream. You could even add a teaspoon of matcha into the white chocolate ganache and make a double Matcha Macaron. These delicious treats are great for gifts or as party favors or to enjoy with some tea! <br /> <br />I’ve listed below in detail all the steps you need to successfully make these cookies! So get out the whisk and spatula and start baking! <br /> <br />Fried Parsley <br />www.friedparsley.com
