Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
7 mins

In a food processor, combine the almonds, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pulse until the almonds are very finely ground – almost to a flour-like consistency. Be careful not to over-process into almond butter. (7 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

Separate one of the eggs. Add the egg white, the remaining whole egg, and the almond extract to the food processor. Process until the mixture comes together and forms a sticky dough. (3 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Transfer the dough to a medium bowl and gently fold in the chopped chocolate until evenly distributed. (2 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

Lightly moisten your hands with water. Roll tablespoon-sized portions of the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each macaroon. Flatten each ball slightly to form 1/3-inch thick rounds. (10 minutes)

06

Step
12 mins

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and the centers are still slightly soft to the touch. (12 minutes)

07

Step
20 mins

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the macaroons cool on the sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (20 minutes)

For a deeper chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate with a higher cacao percentage.
If the dough is too sticky to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before rolling.
Store cooled macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

    These were amazing! So easy to make and everyone loved them. I used dark chocolate chips and they were perfect.
