Part 6/7:
Make sure to whisk in softened butter for added creaminess, and allow the ganache to reach a temperature and thickness suitable for piping. Set it aside to cool while checking the macaron shells.
Once baked, the macarons should lift easily from the baking sheet. If they feel sticky, gently lift the edge and push.
Assembling the Macarons
When your macarons and ganache are ready, it’s time to fill them. Pipe a generous amount of ganache onto the flat side of one shell, carefully placing another shell on top to create a sandwich. For best results, ensure that the ganache is just at the right consistency—soft yet stable.
