Servings: 50 whole macarons
Ingredients
Filling
- 2/3 cup peanut butter smooth
- 1 stick unsalted butter room temperature
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup ground pretzels plus more for topping
- 1/4 cup ground Chex cereal (the one in the blue box) plus more for topping
- 1/4 cup ground M&Ms plus more for topping
Topping
- 1-2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1-2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup roughly ground pretzels (approximately)
- 1 cup roughly ground Chex cereal (approximately)
- 1 cup roughly ground M&Ms (I like to use the pastels Easter colored ones) (approximately)
Instructions
Macaron Shells
- You can use any plain macaron shells for this recipe. Go here for my favorite shell recipe: https://michellesmacarons.com/french-macaron-recipe/
- Bake the shells and let them cool completely
Make the Filling
- Beat together the peanut butter and butter until smooth
- Add the powdered sugar and beat on high speed until it's really light and fluffy
- Add 1/4 cup each of the ground pretzels, Chex, and M&Ms and beat until combined.
Prepare the Topping
- Melt the chocolate, add the oil, and stir until smooth. Use 1 tablespoon of oil for every 1 cup of white chocolate chips
Assemble the Macarons
- Pipe the filling onto a shell and top with another shell
- I like to dip the macaron tops in white chocolate, sprinkle with the pretzels, Chex, and M&Ms then once they've cooled a bit, drizzle them with some pastel colored white chocolate to make them even prettier for Easter
- Refrigerate until the chocolate is dry
- Put them in an airtight container and refrigerate 24 hours to mature the macarons. Then let them get to room temperature and enjoy!
