Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 large egg whites
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, cut into pieces
Directions
In the bowl of an electric mixer, whisk egg whites and sugar. Set mixer bowl over a saucepan of simmering water and heat mixture, whisking often, until it feels warm to the touch and sugar is dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes.
Transfer bowl to the mixer, and fit with the whisk attachment. Whip on high speed until mixture is stiff and shiny, 3 to 5 minutes. Add butter, one piece at a time, and continue mixing until butter is thoroughly incorporated. The filling can be kept, covered and refrigerated, up to 1 week. Bring to room temperature before stirring.
Variations: To make hazelnut-honey filling: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup of macaron filling with 1/3 cup finely ground hazelnuts and 2 tablespoons good-quality honey.

This recipe is quick and easy, but does require some effort! I saw other people end up with “soupy” icings that were not emulsified! My advice is to make sure that you completely dissolve the sugar in the egg whites before whipping them, and extra sure you are only adding small pieces of butter at a time.
The icing wasn’t as sweet as I’d like my filling to be, (very), and I ended up adding some powdered sugar to the filling sweetening it to taste. If you don’t go overboard with the sugar it won’t affect the consistency of the filling at all!

Followed the instructions religiously. Came out absolutely terrible. Soupy and glaze-like, nothing at all like a frosting. Seems like this needs additional sugar or something, but overall I am very appalled.

Is this a good base to add other flavors to? Is there any flavoring that won't work with this filling, such as jams or extracts?
