The first time I tried to make French macarons with a friend, we didn’t grind the almonds fine enough and somehow forgot to add the powdered sugar. Needless to say they looked terrible and tasted nothing like a macaron should taste. I don’t take baking failures lightly so I was determine to make them again with success. This time around I watched this video twice but followed this recipe. Since it’s winter, I decided on snowmen and used an edible pen for the face, orange starburst for the nose, and pearlized sprinkles for the buttons!

I create a template to make shaping the snowmen a little easier
