Shamrock Macarons with Baileys Ganache Filling

6- Pipe the shells: Transfer the macaron stick to the prepared piping bag and pipe circles onto the parchment paper. Press the baking sheet firmly on a flat surface to release air bubbles. Use a toothpick to pop any visible bubbles.

7- Rest: Allow the piping shells to rest for about 30 minutes, or until dry to the touch.

8- Bake: Preheat the oven to 310°F (154°C). Bake the macarons for 9 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake for an additional 2 minutes. They are done when they do not move when lightly touched.

9- Done: Allow the macarons to cool completely on the baking sheet before gently removing them.

Baileys Ganache:

10- Make the ganache: In a saucepan, combine the heavy cream and glucose syrup, bringing to a light boil. Remove from heat and pour over the chopped dark chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is melted and smoothly combined.

11- Add the butter and Baileys: Incorporate the unsalted butter using an immersion blender until smooth. Then, fold the liquor into the Baileys and mix well. Allow the ganache to cool completely before assembling.

Assembly:

12- Assemble: Once the pasta shells have cooled, match the shells in pairs. Place a circle of Baileys ganache in the center of one shell, then top with the matching half.

13- Decorate: If desired, add edible wafer paper shamrocks or confetti on top for a festive touch.

Enjoy
