My Holy Grail Macarons!
Tiramisu is one of me and my husband fav dessert ( which is pretty rare that we both like the same thing :) because of all ingredients that answer us. Chocolate, coffee, mascarpone cheese and liquor . Even normally I am not a fan of alcohol drinks but I do like the taste and smell of liquor when it is in food or dessert.
So when tiramisu becomes macarons, when Italian Tiramisu meets French Macarons…like the best meets the best ^^. For me this macaron is just perfect combination.
..The smell is great, the taste of chocolate, coffee , creamy cheese and touch of rum…ummmmm…one never enough!! ^^
