Macaron wet ingredients: * 100g egg whites (stiff peaks? Medium peaks? I’m not sure which one I should do, as these came out somewhat airy, if you picked it up from the top, then the top of the shell could come off. Did I mix it too much?) * 35g granulated sugar * 1 tsp cream of tartar * random drip of vanilla extract lol maybe 1/2 tsp? * Wilton gel food coloring
The hearts are strawberry cheesecake, bears are Oreos. They have the same base: * 1/4 cup softened butter * 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup softened cream cheese * 180g powdered sugar * 1/2 tsp vanilla extract * 1 tsp heavy cream, add more to desired consistency * crushed freeze dried strawberries or crushed Oreos, add to taste. I think I used 2 tbsp for each
Baked at 275F for 15 mins on dark baking trays. I’m wondering if also I didn’t let them dry enough. I touched the tops of them and they didn’t stick so I thought they were ready. Idk why but these are airy.
