Step‑By‑Step Instructions for Oreo Macarons
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper.
- Sift together almond flour, powdered sugar, and Oreo cookie crumbs in a large bowl to ensure no lumps.
- Whip egg whites in a clean mixing bowl until foamy; gradually add cream of tartar and caster sugar, whipping until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the sifted dry ingredients into the meringue until you achieve a thick, lava-like batter.
- Transfer the batter into a piping bag and pipe small mounds about 1.5 inches apart on baking sheets.
- Allow the piped macarons to dry for about 60 minutes, or until touch dry to achieve perfect rise.
- Bake for 10-20 minutes without opening the oven door until done and slightly sticky.
- Allow shells to cool completely before pairing into sets and piping Oreo buttercream onto one side.
- Refrigerate the assembled macarons for at least 24 hours for optimal flavor.

Notes
For best results, monitor egg whites closely while whipping, and sifting is crucial for a smooth texture. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
