Join the February Bakeable Challenge: French Macarons

Our February Challenge

We’ve been hearing from our community of bakers for a while now that there’s one recipe they really want to tackle in 2023: French Macarons.

You may be familiar with these candy-colored treats lined up in pastry cases, but you can make your own right at home. They’ll take a little extra time and require some more advanced baking skills; we know you’re ready to take this challenge on!

So join us and make a batch this month! Macarons are terrific anytime, but make an especially tasty Valentine’s Day treat.

• Stay tuned for our new Makeable challenge: On the 10th of every month, we’ll be launching a bonus recipe that’s a great companion for our challenge. The twist? Makeable recipes are super simple and quick! This new recipe will be announced in our Facebook group.
