XD the trick is: when youre baking/cooking you suddenly dont feel so hungry for it anymore. maybe youve smelled it so much/long that you dont want it anymore XD and oneor two of them is ok.
also the other recipes e.g. the selfmade strawberry icecream are really low fat and have minimal kcal. so you cant freely eat it XD (better than normal icecream!)

theyre sweet and half crunchy. crunchy on the outside and soft-mellow in the inside. the orignal filling is some kind of fruit-marmalade-thing. but i couldnt afford any fancy fruits so i opted for a normal chocolate-filling i know by heart.
macarons( DO NOT confuse with macaroons! XDD) are so..... great. some fine bakeries have macarons, maybe you can try them somewhere sometime. theyre worth it baby!

ive seen recipes for matcha ones as well. but i once drank green tea and ...i dunno...maybe it was a really bad green tea. but it tasted like grass D: a very bad experience so far...
if you get the chance, try them. theyre really a good french treat ahaha

the kitchen is mine for years XDDD and actually i cook more than i bake. cause im a bit of a fail-baker XD cooking seems to be easier for me XD

Well, I think they look better cracked! At least you can see what you put in your macaron xD

but a perfect macaron has a smoot, uncracked surface and pretty feet D: mine are like monsters ahahaha but thats the challenge. it was a 90% fail. 10%win for the taste. but its not my first time with meringue-dough so its not a surprise that the taste was ok-ish.
but i dunno WHY they cracked. i followed the recipe 100% and its a good recipe. i really did some huge research on macarons.
i guess its our oven which might be hotter than it shows. maybe the 160°C was hotter or whatever. or they were 30secs too long inside... i dunno. i will try again XD
