Dacquoise Cookies

If you like macarons, then you should never miss out on the thick version of it – the dacquoise cookies. It is easier and fails proof to make than the fancy macrons; besides, it also has similar ingredients as making the macarons.

I always had a hard time making the macarons since they easily got cracks or undercooked. However, I had no issues with baking dacquoise, which the “ugly cracks” made it looks prettier. The dacquoise cookies are more and more popular these days due to the easy recipe and cute looking.

What are the ingredients?

• The dacquoises are also known as French meringue cookies made from mixed almond flour, all-purpose flour, and icing sugar with egg whites (the whipped meringue). The cookie tastes crunchy and chewy on the outside and moist inside with the whipped cream filling.
• For the fillings, I made the whipped cream mixed my homemade blueberry jam to create an interesting and tasty flavoring for it. It is fun and satisfying to make different kinds of filling for your dacquoise cookies. It would be an excellent idea to try this easy recipe to make the most delicious dessert for family and friends on a wonderful holiday.

How to store the dacquoise cookies?

• You can keep the dacquoise cookies in the fridge or the freezer with the plastic bag sealed, which can be lasted for a few days. Assemble the cookies with fillings before serving.

What to serve with them?

• The cookies make a tasty and beautiful afternoon set with cream puff, double-layer Matcha cheesecake, and white rabbit milk tea.
