    I make macarons regularly (at least once a month.) The first time I ever made them 2 years ago, I followed this recipe. I am grateful for the video, but I found the recipe calls for way too much sugar and is way too sweet. The granulated and powdered sugar in the macaron cookie mixture cannot be altered much, because it helps create smooth tops. However, you can halve the amount of confectioners sugar in the icing recipe. I highly recommend doing so. Also, I highly recommend only making half the amount of icing recommended. The recipe left me with bags full of icing left over, and if you halve the recipe you will only have a little left over and the perfect amount to fill all your cookies.
    Finally, to anyone trying out this recipe I recommend you look up the oven drying method. It really helps me ensure that my macarons do not have cracked tops or have hollow shells (common problem.) And don't be afraid of silicon baking sheets, a ton of professional macaron makers use them for baking these cookies, like Sugar Bean 슈가빈.
    Good luck!!!

      Macarons are going to be sweet no matter what they are literally half sugar. Plus like you said you can’t change the sugar in the macaron recipe as it literally stabilizes it. The icing is just an extra and I don’t even include it as part of the recipe bc you can change and make your own.

    I made these, and unfortunatly, they didnt come out as a classic macaron. They didn't have the feet, and they cracked on top a little. However, the texture and flavor was really spot on. It was my first time, so there's always room for improvement! The only thing I messed on might have been undermixing possibly. I would also just do a literal pinch of salt instead of 1 tsp bc they were slightly salty when you first bite into them.

    Preparation
    Make the macarons: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the powdered sugar, almond flour, and ½ teaspoon of salt, and process on low speed, until extra fine. Sift the almond flour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl.
    In a separate large bowl, beat the egg whites and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the granulated sugar until fully incorporated. Continue to beat until stiff peaks form (you should be able to turn the bowl upside down without anything falling out).
    Add the vanilla and beat until incorporated. Add the food coloring and beat until just combined.
    Add about ⅓ of the sifted almond flour mixture at a time to the beaten egg whites and use a spatula to gently fold until combined. After the last addition of almond flour, continue to fold slowly until the batter falls into ribbons and you can make a figure 8 while holding the spatula up.
    Transfer the macaron batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
    Place 4 dots of the batter in each corner of a rimmed baking sheet, and place a piece of parchment paper over it, using the batter to help adhere the parchment to the baking sheet.
    Pipe the macarons onto the parchment paper in 1½-inch (3-cm) circles, spacing at least 1-inch (2-cm) apart.
    Tap the baking sheet on a flat surface 5 times to release any air bubbles.
    Let the macarons sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until dry to the touch.
    Preheat the oven to 300˚F (150˚C).
    Bake the macarons for 17 minutes, until the feet are well-risen and the macarons don’t stick to the parchment paper.
    Transfer the macarons to a wire rack to cool completely before filling.
    Make the buttercream: In a large bowl, add the butter and beat with a mixer for 1 minute until light and fluffy. Sift in the powdered sugar and beat until fully incorporated. Add the vanilla and beat to combine. Add the cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat to combine, until desired consistency is reached.
    Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
    Add a dollop of buttercream to one macaron shell. Top it with another macaron shell to create a sandwich. Repeat with remaining macaron shells and buttercream.
    Place in an airtight container for 24 hours to “bloom”.
    Enjoy!

    *Tips:*
    - Crack you eggs and separate the whites the day before. Keep them in the fridge until you make your macarons. This dehydrates the egg whites, which makes your macarons have a better texture.
    - If your aren’t the best at piping, I would consider using a template. Just get a image from the internet of just a bunch of circles. Then print it out. You can put that paper under the parchment paper, and pipe the batter onto the parchment, following the circle template. After your done piping, carefully slide out the template from under the parchment. You can also reuse it. I would consider myself pretty good at piping. I’ve made over 50 batches of macarons, but I still use the template. It helps space them evenly, and makes sure they are all the same size. I would definitely recommend this.
    - If you think your macarons are under baked, because they wont come cleanly off of the parchment paper, they're probably not. I've made this mistake so many times, thinking they weren't ready yet. They wont come of cleanly immediately, you have to let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
    - If you do end up over-cooking them, leave them in the fridge for at least around 4 hours, but up to 24 hours would be best. I am not lying. If your macarons are over baked and hard. Leave them in the fridge with the filling in it, and it works wonders. My past 4 tries have all been over-baked, and doing this has helped so much.
    Hope this helps, Good Luck!

Chief mistakes were butcher paper, because we couldn't find parchment paper, kitchen temp was a bit low for "film" to form in a timely manner, so the macarons settled a bit, and we used liquid food color.

      Macarons were first invented by French Monks in the middle ages...... but they were nothing like what they are today. They were just plain cookies. The modern macaron you see today was invented in the 1920s and was probably people who experimented with it to try to make it fancier.

    I’m a year late but this still might be helpful to some people
    Ingredients
    for 30 macarons:
    MACARONS:
    1 ¾ cups powdered sugar (210 g)
    1 cup almond flour (95 g), finely ground
    1 teaspoon salt, divided
    3 egg whites, at room temperature
    ¼ cup granulated sugar (50 g)
    ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 drops pink gel food coloring
    VANILLA BUTTERCREAM:
    1 cup unsalted butter (230 g), 2 sticks, at room temperature
    3 cups powdered sugar (360 g)
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    3 tablespoons heavy cream
    This may take an extra hour but here’s how to do it
    Make the macarons: In the bowl of a food processor, combine the powdered sugar, almond flour, and ½ teaspoon of salt, and process on low speed, until extra fine. Sift the almond flour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl.
    In a separate large bowl, beat the egg whites and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the granulated sugar until fully incorporated. Continue to beat until stiff peaks form (you should be able to turn the bowl upside down without anything falling out).
    Add the vanilla and beat until incorporated. Add the food coloring and beat until just combined.
    Add about ⅓ of the sifted almond flour mixture at a time to the beaten egg whites and use a spatula to gently fold until combined. After the last addition of almond flour, continue to fold slowly until the batter falls into ribbons and you can make a figure 8 while holding the spatula up.
    Transfer the macaron batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
    Place 4 dots of the batter in each corner of a rimmed baking sheet, and place a piece of parchment paper over it, using the batter to help adhere the parchment to the baking sheet.
    Pipe the macarons onto the parchment paper in 1½-inch (3-cm) circles, spacing at least 1-inch (2-cm) apart.
    Tap the baking sheet on a flat surface 5 times to release any air bubbles.
    Let the macarons sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour, until dry to the touch.
    Preheat the oven to 300˚F (150˚C).
    Bake the macarons for 17 minutes, until the feet are well-risen and the macarons don’t stick to the parchment paper.
    Transfer the macarons to a wire rack to cool completely before filling.
    Make the buttercream: In a large bowl, add the butter and beat with a mixer for 1 minute until light and fluffy. Sift in the powdered sugar and beat until fully incorporated. Add the vanilla and beat to combine. Add the cream, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat to combine, until desired consistency is reached.
    Transfer the buttercream to a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
    Add a dollop of buttercream to one macaron shell. Top it with another macaron shell to create a sandwich. Repeat with remaining macaron shells and buttercream.
    Place in an airtight container for 24 hours to “bloom”.
    Enjoy!

      @@fra4193 That's true ! But these cookies you are talking about are nowhere near macarons. Macarons are chewy in the centre, and crunchy on top. What they had earlier in time is more like a hard meringue cookie. The modern recipe is really french and created by the cousin of Louis-Ernest Ladurée.

    Just a tip for anyone making these, I followed this recipe twice and both times they worked out very well, except there is WAY too much sugar in these macarons. They do work and they bake nice, but they are extremely sweet. The recipe I follow now uses another half cup of almond flour, only one cup of powdered sugar, and half a cup of granulated sugar in the meringue. I use preppy kitchen’s recipe and find it works perfectly pretty much every time. I also find you can substitute 1/4 cup of the almond flour for cocoa powder to make chocolate macaron shells. Good luck fellow bakers!!
    Edit: oh! And I also recommend weighing out the powdered sugar since powdered sugar can get very packed down if you’re not careful. 120 grams is perfect.

    Here’s some things I learned while doing this recipe: 1. The buttercream in the recipe is WAY too sweet. It becomes icing rather than cream only put one cup of powdered sugar in your butter first and add more until you’re satisfied with the sweetness 2. Add more gel food coloring 3. Leave them in the oven for 1-3 more minutes after 17 minutes while oven is cooling down
