Macarons!

I mentioned in my Mother's Day post that my husband got me this macaron book as a Mother's Day gift. 
With our second rainy day in a row I decided to spend the better part of my day baking. 
I just made the basic recipe for the shells and the sprinkled Ghiradelli chocolate powder on top the make it pretty. They filling is a super yummy chocolate ganache. I really wanted to lick the bowl clean but for the sake of fitting into my pants tomorrow I refrained. 
For my first time they came out pretty good. They weren't perfect I definitely learned a few things for my next try. Next time I want to try a blueberry filling.
