How To Make BerryWorld Strawberry and Almond Macarons:
Makes: 8
Cooking time: 15 minutes || Prep time: 20 minutes
You’ll Need:
- 4 large egg whites
- 175g icing sugar
- 170g ground almonds
- 30ml water

For The Filling:
- 200g butter (at room temperature)

What To Do:
- Firstly, preheat the oven to 170°C fan/ 150°C.
- Place 2 of the egg whites in a large bowl, sift in the icing sugar and ground almonds and mix into a paste.
- Place the water and caster sugar in a small pan, and bring to the boil. The syrup needs to reach 118°C.
- While the syrup is boiling, whisk the 2 remaining egg whites until stiff, ideally using an electric whisk. Pour the hot syrup slowly into the egg whites, whisking all the time. Continue whisking until the mixture is thick glossy and cool – the syrup will cook the eggs.
- With a spatula, gently stir the syrup and egg whites mixture with the sugar, and almond paste until the two mixtures are combined.
- Place the mixture into a piping bag and pipe out equal rounds onto a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Don’t worry if all the mix doesn’t fit on the tray, you can cook it in batches.
- Allow the macaroons to sit for 20-30 minutes so they can form a skin. Cook the macaroons for 15-20 minutes and then allow to cool on the tray for 10 minutes.
- For the filling, beat the butter and icing sugar together until light and fluffy. Sandwich the macaroons together with two slices of strawberries and a little buttercream.

The Beautiful Colours Of Summer In St James Park.When we visit London, I like to go for a walk in St James Park, which is my favourite park. It’s just stunning. The flowers are always beautiful, and the wildlife is a sight to behold. I enjoy photographing flowers. So cheerful and lovely.
I adore photographing wildlife, but no matter how near they are, I can never capture a clear shot of them. In addition, I believe my hand shakes when I push the click button!! When is the last time you had a squirrel approach you to see if you have any food? Or witness a heron standing by your side anywhere else!? We don’t have any where I live, to be honest. Well, not ones that want to be near humans!! TheBeautiful Colours Of Summer In St James Park.So pretty.
