Preparation Steps
Step 1
Prepare the batter for shells
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg whites with the cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually add the sugar, half a tablespoon at a time, continuing to whisk until stiff peaks form. If desired, add yellow or orange gel food colouring to achieve a light cheesy hue. In a separate bowl, sift together the maltose powder, cornstarch, almond flour, cheese powder, and salt. This mixture will help provide structure and flavour to the shells. Gently fold the dry mixture into the whipped egg whites using a rubber spatula. Continue folding until the batter reaches the consistency of molten lava or smooth yoghurt. Transfer to a piping bag. Pipe 1-inch circles, spaced 1 inch apart, onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Tap the sheet on the counter a few times to remove any air bubbles.
Step 2
Prepare the cheese filling
Allow the batter to rest for 30 minutes to an hour until the surface feels dry and does not stick to your finger. Preheat the oven to 135°C.Once the shells are dry on top bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until they are firm and lightly golden. Let them cool completely on the baking sheet. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour and cook until it bubbles and turns slightly golden. Slowly add the milk, whisking constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the Britannia The Laughing Cow Cream Cheese, return the pan to low heat and whisk until the mixture is smooth. Add garlic powder, and season with salt and black pepper. Let the cheese filling cool completely, then refrigerate until ready to use. Once the macaron shells are fully cooled, transfer the cheese filling into a piping bag. Pipe a generous amount of filling onto half of the shells, then sandwich them with the remaining shells.
