Made macarons for the first time a week ago and they truly came out perfect. I was so proud of myself. What the hell did I do wrong this time around?! Feeling defeated.

keep in mind humidity and temperature are environmental factors that can change the outcome of your macarons! I live in KY and this past week i’ve had to adjust my recipe three times because it went from 80° to 30° and high humidity to low in like three days.
this also looks like the skin didn’t develop all the way, so the humidity could have changed and they could have needed to develop a little more of a skin than what you originally did in the past!

I’m gonna go with over-macaronage.

Did you let them rest long enough before baking?

Lots of things could be wrong. What recipe did you use, did you weigh your ingredients. Did you rest? Did you wipe your balls and mixer with vinegar before you started?

Use the oven drying method. I live in Thailand. It is muggy as hell and hot. This always works.
