Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- Whisk together the almond flour, confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, and salt until well combined.
- Beat the egg whites at medium speed until foamy, gradually adding granulated sugar. Increase speed to high and whip until stiff peaks form, about 5-7 minutes.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the whipped egg whites using a spatula until no dry pockets remain.
- Transfer the macaron batter into a piping bag fitted with a round tip and pipe even circles onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Allow the piped macarons to rest at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes, then bake for 15-20 minutes.
- Let the macarons cool completely before removing them from the sheets.

Notes
Sifting dry ingredients is crucial for achieving smooth macaron shells. Ensure you allow the piped shells to form a skin before baking.
