Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups of powedered sugar
• 1 cup almond flour, finely ground
• 1 teaspoon of salt, divided
• 3 egg whites, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 drops of any gel food coloring

Directions

1. In the bowl of food processor, combine the powdered sugar, almond flour, and the 1/2 of salt. If you don't have a processor, just sift it until it is extra fine
2. In a seperate bowl, beat the egg whites and the remaining salt until the peaks form. Add sugar little by little
3. Add the vanilla and the coloring and keep beating.
4. Add about 1/3 of the sifted almond flour mixture at a time to the beaten egg whites and use a spatula to gently fold it until combined. The batter should be able to create a figure 8
5. Transfer the batter into the piping bag and squeeze it so it is a size of a coin. Pat the tray down and put it on the oven.
6. After it comes out of the oven, let it sit in room temperature for 30 minutes-1 hour and touch it when it's dry.
7. Then make the cream and voila! You have the perfect macarons.
