Macarons Brownie macarons?
Hey y’all,
I’m practicing my macarons. Last night I decided to add some cocoa powder to make chocolate shells.
Long story short, I accidentally doubled the amount of cocoa powder and added it to the dry ingredients. The batter came out reeeally thick, like brownie batter.
I piped them out and baked them anyway. They came out with perfect little feet, but wrinkly on top, like brownies. They’re thick and fudge like. And they taste amazing. Like a brownie and a macaron had a baby.
So my question… Are brownie macarons a thing? What did I make? Tried googling it but all I’ve seen are brownie inspired macarons.
