Prepare Macaron Shells

Begin by mixing the almond flour and powdered sugar, then sift together to remove any lumps. In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until frothy before adding the granulated sugar and cream of tartar. Continue whipping until you achieve stiff peaks. Gently fold in the dry ingredients along with food coloring and a few drops of vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth. Pipe onto a baking sheet and let rest before baking at 140°C (285°F) until crisp on the outside yet chewy inside.

Assemble Ice Cream Sandwich

Once macaron shells are cooled, choose your favorite ice cream flavor and scoop a generous amount (approximately 100 grams) onto the flat side of one macaron shell. Place another shell on top, gently pressing down to create the sandwich. Freeze until the ice cream is firm.
