Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. One hour before starting, take the egg whites out of the refrigerator.
  2. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees Celcuis.
  3. Mix the icing sugar, caster sugar and ground almonds in a blender until they form a fine powder.
  4. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of caster (superfine) sugar until they form soft peaks, then when it begins to look 'moussey' (not sure how to translate commence a mousser ), add 20g of sugar and whisk until the egg whites form stiff peaks.
  5. Tip the egg white mixture into the almond mixture and and fold (the recipes says macaronnez , I don't think that's translatable!) together using a spatula until they form a smooth paste but be careful not to let them become liquidy.
  6. Using a 8mm piping bag, pipe little mounds (about 60) of the mixture on a greased baking sheet, spacing them about 3-4cm apart.
  7. Leave in the oven for 12-14 minutes, being careful not to let them brown too much. After that time, take them out of the oven and allow them to cool before decorating. Turn the oven down to 90 degrees Celcius.
  8. While they're cooling, beat the egg yolks and sugar together until they become pale.
  9. In a separate bowl, whisk the cream with the vanilla until it thickens slightly, then tip it into the egg yolk mixture. Mix together gently so it doesn't turn into a mousse.
  10. Pour the creme into a greased flan or pie dish measuring about 18cm (7-8 inches) and place in the oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes. After that time, leave it to cool for an hour, then place it in the fridge to set for at least four hours.
  11. When you're ready to serve (finally!), take the creme out of the fridge and stamp out discs the same size as the macaroons, and place on the flat side of one macaroon. Sprinkle with demerera sugar and caramelize using a blow torch, then place on a small tea plate, placing another macaroon flat side down on one edge as a 'lid' to make 30 macaroons.
  12. I promise you it's worth the effort! They look really impressive, but it made me realize how hard French patissiers must work.
