Eggnog Macarons


My favorite holiday macaron for this year is this eggnog macaron.  Don't they look so festive topped with a little sprinkling of nutmeg?
I made the frosting with a little more eggnog and less sugar than the original recipe called for.  Just keep that in mind when making this eggnog frosting.  I also made an Italian meringue for these macarons.  You will need a scale to measure the weight of your egg whites, sugar, almond meal and water in order to use this method.  Please have a look at Syrup and Tang's explanation for making macarons here.


Eggnog Marshmallow Fluff:
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter
  • 2.5 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 (7 oz jar) marshmallow fluff
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon eggnog
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
  1. Place butter, sugar, marshmallow fluff, eggnog, and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Beat on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 3-5 minutes.
  2. Fill macarons then garnish with ground nutmeg.
