Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by thoroughly cleaning all your bowls, spatulas, and baking sheets with vinegar. Preheat your oven to 300°F.
- In a bowl, sift together the almond flour, powdered sugar, and ground cinnamon. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites with cream of tartar until frothy. Gradually add granulated sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Transfer the macaron batter into a piping bag and pipe small circles onto the prepared baking mat. Allow the macarons to sit until a skin forms, about 40 to 45 minutes.
- Carefully place the macaron trays in the preheated oven and bake for 13 to 14 minutes. Allow to cool completely on the baking sheet.
- Prepare the pumpkin buttercream filling by mixing the pumpkin puree with butter and cream cheese. Gradually add brown sugar and pumpkin spice until smooth.
- Pair the cooled macaron shells, pipe pumpkin buttercream onto one shell, and top with the matching shell.
- Melt butterscotch chips and use them to attach candy eyes, candy corn, and other decorative elements.
