Time Needed

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 300°F.
Combine almond flour and powdered sugar in a food processor and pulse until well combined and fine.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
Whisk in the granulated sugar gradually until stiff peaks form.
Combine the almond flour mixture, raspberry extract, and pink food coloring in a large mixing bowl.
Fill a piping bag with a round tip with the mixture.
Pipe small circles about 1 inch in diameter on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
To release any air bubbles, gently tap the baking sheet on the counter.
Allow macarons to rest for 30 minutes, or until a skin forms on top.
Bake macarons for 15 minutes, or until set and slightly risen.
Allow the macarons to completely cool on the baking sheet.
Melt chocolate and heavy cream in a heatproof bowl in the microwave or double boiler until smooth.
Stir in the raspberry jam until smooth and glossy.
Fill a piping bag with a small round tip with chocolate ganache.
Pipe a small amount of ganache onto one macaron's bottom and sandwich it with another.
Continue with the remaining macarons and ganache.
Serve immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
