Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Earl Gray tea leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a food processor, pulse together almond flour, powdered sugar, and Earl Gray tea leaves until well combined.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually add granulated sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
  • Gently fold in the almond flour mixture, vanilla extract, and salt until the batter is smooth and shiny.
  • Transfer the batter to a piping bag fitted with a round tip. Pipe small circles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Tap the baking sheet on the counter a few times to release any air bubbles. Let the macarons sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to form a skin.
  • Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Bake the macarons for 15-18 minutes, or until they are set and easily lift off the parchment paper.
  • While the macarons are cooling, prepare the Earl Gray buttercream filling. In a mixing bowl, beat together softened butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  • Once the macarons have cooled completely, pipe a dollop of buttercream onto the flat side of one macaron shell. Sandwich with another shell.
  • Repeat with the remaining macaron shells and filling.
  • Store the macarons in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve and enjoy!
