Ingredients
- For the macarons
- 140 grams shelled, unsalted Pistachio
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 150 grams powdered sugar
- 1 Tbsp Matcha
- For the cream
- 150 grams butter
- 60 grams powdered sugar
- 120 grams cream cheese
Preparation steps
Preheat the oven to 120°C (approximately 250°F) convection. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Finely grind the pistachios in a blender and set aside 3 tablespoons. Beat the egg whites with the lemon juice until stiff and gradually sprinkle in the powdered sugar. Beat until the mixture is glossy, then carefully fold in the pistachios and Matcha. Spoon the batter into a piping bag fitted with large round tip. Pipe even meringue polka dots and bake about 10 minutes in the oven, until crispy on the outside but still soft on the inside. Remove from the oven, remove from baking pan and let cool. For the filling, beat the butter with the powdered sugar until fluffy and gradually stir in the cream cheese and the remaining finely ground pistachio. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a small star tip and cover the flat side of half the macarons. Place the flat side of the other half of the macarons on the cream, press lightly and serve.
