      Title: Macaron (French Macaroon)
 Categories: Five, Cookies, Snacks, Desserts, Nuts
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
      3 lg Egg whites
    1/4 c  White sugar
  1 2/3 c  Confectioners' sugar
      1 c  Fine ground almonds
 
  Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
  
  Beat egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with
  a whisk attachment until whites are foamy; beat in white
  sugar and continue beating until egg whites are glossy,
  fluffy, and hold soft peaks. Sift confectioners' sugar and
  ground almonds in a separate bowl and quickly fold the
  almond mixture into the egg whites, about 30 strokes.
  
  Spoon a small amount of batter into a plastic bag with a
  small corner cut off and pipe a test disk of batter, about
  1 1/2" in diameter, onto prepared baking sheet. If the
  disk of batter holds a peak instead of flattening
  immediately, gently fold the batter a few more times and
  retest.
  
  When batter is mixed enough to flatten immediately into an
  even disk, spoon into a pastry bag fitted with a plain
  round tip. Pipe the batter onto the baking sheet in
  rounds, leaving space between the disks. Let the piped
  cookies stand out at room temperature until they form a
  hard skin on top, about 1 hour.
  
  Set oven @ 285ºF/140ºC.
  
  Bake cookies until set but not browned, about 10 minutes;
  let cookies cool completely before filling.
