In this hands-on baking class, we’re tackling two delicious cookies that may sound like cousins but couldn’t be more different: the elegant French macaron and the wonderfully chewy coconut macaroon.
First up: French macarons! You’ll learn how to whip, fold, pipe, and bake these colorful little beauties without losing your mind in the process. We’ll demystify the famous macaronage technique, talk about those elusive ruffled “feet,” and share plenty of tips for getting smooth, picture-perfect shells.
Then it’s time for the coconut macaroon—a much more relaxed cookie with big coconut flavor, crisp golden edges, and a soft, chewy center. You’ll mix, scoop, shape, and bake your way to a batch that’s seriously hard to resist.
And yes, you’ll actually do the baking! This is a hands-on class, so expect to get involved from start to finish. We’ll mix, pipe, scoop, bake, and taste, together. Along the way, you’ll pick up tricks for knowing when your batter is just right and how to avoid the most common macaron mishaps.
You’ll leave knowing how to:
Make smooth, delicious French macaron shells
Master the art of macaron ageing and proper piping
Make perfectly chewy coconut macaroons
Get the right texture and golden finish every time
Troubleshoot the most common macaron mistakes
Re-create both cookies in your own kitchen
Come ready to bake, learn, and eat a LOT of cookies. Because when it comes to macarons and macaroons, there’s really no such thing as too much practice—or too much tasting!
