Ok, so you know how some things absolutely blow your mind to pieces? Some things that make you wonder why you never believed in fairytales, or magic or rainbows that truly lead you to a pot of gold?
Well, this is that mind-blowing style of recipe with an even bigger bomb of a result!
It is oh so crackly.
The strawberry melds with the ganache.
Creating heaven.
What can I say, this delicious dessert drives me a bit crazy. And that is why it was the perfect indulgence to share over at Minnie’s blog.
Have you met Aunty Minnie? Surely you jest if you haven’t! She is one incredibly talented chef with recipes that range from sweet to savoury and heavenly to more heavenly (no matter which order you take it in
)
She blogs at the awesome site, The Lady 8 Home, where I am very happy to say, is where I shall be guest posting today and just in time to celebrate her anniversary AND birthday
! Thank you so much Aunty Minnie
Hope everyone enjoys this recipe which screams over-indulgence, RIGHT HERE :D
P.S. You will not be able to stop at eating one, guaranteed!


I just love macarons. Yours look so lovely! Wonderful job.
oh man Uru you got it going! your macaroons look so perfect. I know many pros here who can’t achieve what you did. You go girl!
I was at Minnie’s blog earlier and saw your wonderful guest post! One day I need to try making macarons at home, and hope that mine would look gorgeous like yours.
This is such a nice recipe, I still need to perfect making my macarons though…they tend to break when I peel them off to fill the two cookies.
Uru, you made macarons?! You are my hero! I am very intimidated to try it. I will go see if you can bolster my confidence with your recipe!
Lovely macarons, sure taste heavenly.
Have a nice day.
These look perfect in so many ways! Thank you for sharing!
The nutella/strawberry combination sounds awfully good! These look beautiful! Allen.
How do you find the time Uru?
Haha somehow I just do
Cheers

Gorgeous macarons Uru and I hope you’ve been studying like crazy! Heading over to check out your guest post!
I need to make these. Like yesterday.
Your macarons are gorgeous! How do you get them so perfect!? Love the combo of strawberry & nutella. Hope you’re doing well on your exams!
This looks great!! I have never made macarons before, but if something has nutella in it, I’m all over it. YUM!!
Your macarons look amazing! I need to try this yummy filling combo, too
Oooh! Look at your perfect macarons! Well done
I love the strawberry and Nutella combo!
Beautiful & delicious macarons, as usual delicious treat Uru! Happy anniversary & birthday to Minnie!
You know, macarons and I have a love hate thing going on! They look pretty and are, in my opinion, easy to make but I just am not a fan! So, I always make them for guests who go oooh! Strawberry and Nutella, mm, not a combo I’d have thought of! Great job!
I loved the macarons! They are so pretty and cleverly made.
oooh! two of my favorites in one
strawberries and nutella go so well together – these sound AMAZING!
If I could marry Nutella, I would. These look so great!

You would be stealing him from me if you did

These look great CCU! I love French macarons. Making them is fun, but of course the best part is eating them all!!
What gorgeous-looking macarons! I could go for one right now as a little sweet treat. =) Off to check out the post!
Those shells look flawless- Quite a feat of baking indeed! Strawberries and chocolate are of course a match made in heaven, but strawberries and Nutella? Hadn’t thought of it before, though I can’t imagine you could go too far wrong.
Yummmm perfect holiday treat!
I have yet to try my hand at these gorgeous little pastries. Very nicely done.
CCU, love the new layout of your blog – so pretty and professional looking! The falling snow flakes are beautiful too…. peaceful and festive. Great guest post!
These macarons are so adorable! And strawberries and Nutella is such a great combination. I could put Nutella in just about everything
Simply delicious
Oh my! These look more difficult than I might manage well, but maybe I can find someone else to bake them for me! They’re beautiful!
These are lovely, strawberry and nutella seem just the right pairing. Thank you Aunty Minnie and Master Uru, another great one

Just beautiful and heavenly macarons! Very impressive.
I really need to jump on the macaron bandwagon. These are adorable!
Strawberry and nutella sounds like a delicious mix! Have fun prepping for Christmas!
Perfect macarons! And a wonderful combo of flavors!
Yum! Perfect little beauties!!
These look amazing! My favourite flavours.
Hi Uru!!!
I’m so delighted to stumble upon your very delicious looking guest post. I too miss all my visitors.
Just in case I or you, don’t make it back before Christmas, a very Merry Christmas to you and yours, Uru. Thank you so much for sharing, Louise
Right back at you my friend, very nice to meet you and happy holidays
Cheers

Those macaroons are lovely. And it takes time to make them right too. Well done!
Macarons are so lovely as they literally melt in your mouth. These sound wonderful.
Nutella macrons? Yes please please. They look incredible.
These are lovely…so yummy looking! I love nutella in anything!
Gorgeous macarons, Uru! Makes me want to abandon my “diet” altogether!
Cooking during yearlies.. hee hee. Great guest post, Uru, and fun to read Minnie’s intro about you, too!
I love how you described the macaroons, Uru! I have myself a Nutella craving now. Well, for someone who balances school, blogging and baking, you post more regularly than most. Looking forward to more!!
Yay, Christmas! And yay for all the Nutella in the guest posts lately
Nutella = Awesome. But we can’t wait to have you back!
Anyway, I’m doing an Australia-only giveaway (I know, why?) but don’t know very many Australians…if you’d be willing to spread the word, I’d really appreciate it! It ends 12/20 and is for gluten-free cookie bombs from a specialty bakery over there!

These seem like the macarons with the best flavor combination ever. Using nutella is so genius!

Looks ridiculously good!
Have a good week.
Hey Uru, I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to have you guest posting over at my blog. You are one fabulous little lady and wishing you the very very best for your exams
Minnie
You are too sweet my friend, the honour was all mine
Hope all is well in India!

Ohmygosh those are crazy-good!
Looks wonderful! Off to read all about it now . . .
Beautifully done! Just gorgeous.
Well done… macarons intimidate me so I never thought to make them. You are fearless!! Heading over to check out your guest post.
Umm, I think these should be *raspberry* nutella macarons, because that’s the flavor all the cool kids are doing. So you should send these all to me, and I’ll eat them, and you can remake them, okay?
Haha just for you I will go raspberry on them
Cheers
CCU
Oh my do these look delish.
Oooh yay love her! Heading over to her blog
I am so impressed! I have never tried to make macarons before….they intimidate me. But yours are so beautiful and look delish!
What an exciting combination!
WOW those look and sound absolutely fantastic!!
It’s hard to stop laughing at Colette’s comment… I can certainly relate to “eat them all”! A beautiful guest post, CCU. The best looking macaroons I’ve ever seen.
Beautiful macarons, Auntie Minnie is one talented chef. Look forward to seeing your guest post on her site also.
These look delicious–soft and crisp at the same time, how perfect!
They look not only delicious but beautifully perfect! You are such a talented baker!
These are beautiful! It’s not a combo I’m familiar with but more than willing to try!!
yum!! combination = pure awesomeness!!
These look soooo delicious!
Oh. My. Gosh! A flavour match made in CCU heaven!
Mind blowing I must say Ms. Its very nice to look at and you bet tasted heavenly.
Thanks for your comforting words. I am trying to move on though the flashbacks keep coming back in my mind.
We are here to support my friend, naturally it will take time.

Uru
They look like heaven, and so pretty–love your new background!

Oh man. I’m still at work and starving. This is cruelty I tell you.
I’d better go and have a peep…
Tried making these once, turned out ugly, had to eat them all.
