Macarons!

My first successful attempt at making Macarons (not to be confused with Macaroons ;-) ) !!  

Paul and I fell in love with these in Singapore and now I can get them at my local Japanese Grocery Store.  But, I wanted to try and bake them myself - very interesting process, but worth it! 

The cookie part is flavored with orange zest and then I made a butter cream (buttery spread - vegan) flavored with fresh orange juice and Double Bergamot Earl Grey Tea - yum!
