I've been trying to find a good macaron recipe for awhile now, after seeing them all over Paris…
The ones have previously tried don’t come out as pretty as the ones I saw in the shops. Then yesterday I stumbled upon Kitchen Wench's blog where she has posted pictures of her very tasty looking macarons and the recipe she swears by. I had to try it!
It turned out great! There are still I few things I have to work out, but they looked great and had the little feet :D I had 4 trays and only a handful turned out well… the rest were broken or had burst… and the middle was still gooey. I shall try it again this weekend and this time I think I’ll pipe it with more care (so no air bubbles) and maybe bake it for a little longer so that the middles aren’t gooey.

They look gorgeous! Sorry to hear about the not-so-successful ones, the exploded (from the top, I assume?) is an indication that the skin possibly didn't form well enough, so maybe allow more drying time next time? :) I hope you do try them again!
