French Toast Macarons

French Toast Ganache
200 grams of heavy cream
60 grams of rum
3 grams of cinnamon
vanilla (to taste)
50 grams all natural maple syrup
250 grams white chocolate

First make the ganache.  Combine the heavy cream, rum, cinnamon, maple syrup, and vanilla over a bain marie. 
Bring to a boil and then pour over white chocolate.  Let sit for about a minute and then stir to emulsify.  
Put ganache over an ice bath and then put plastic wrap directly over the surface of your ganache.  Wait until the ganache is cool and then put into a stand mixer with the whip attached.  Your ganache should get light and creamy.  If needed add more heavy cream.  
Put in the refrigerator until needed.

Cinnamon Macarons
212 grams of almond flour
212 grams of powdered sugar
3 grams cinnamon
vanilla (to taste)
82 grams egg whites
90 grams egg whites
20 grams of sugar

For macarons, preheat oven to 350 degrees.  
Sift the almond flour, powdered sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl.
Pour 82 grams of egg whites and vanilla and combine with a spatula, until evenly distributed.  Set aside.
Place the remaining 90 grams of egg whites into a bowl with a mixer and mix on high until egg whites double in size.  Then slowly pour in the 20 grams of sugar.
Fold 1/3 of your meringue into the almond mixture a little at a time until all the meringue is used and it's an equal consistency.  You should see 'ribbons' in the batter.  The batter should be pretty thick.
Transfer to a pastry bag.  Hold the bag upright and lightly squeeze into a desired circle size on parchment paper and a cookie sheet.
Wait 20 minutes for macarons to set.
Put into the oven and immediately reduce oven temperature to 320 degrees.  Let bake for 9 to 12 minutes.  Repeat.
Pipe ganache in between two macarons and put together.  Repeat. 
Add cinnamon to sides of macaron if desired.

Raspberry, Brie, and Mango Habanero Pizza

Today I made one of my yummiest masterpieces yet; a raspberry, brie cheese, and mango habanero pizza!   I was kind of lazy, just decided to use a store bought pizza dough instead of making my own, but once I laid out the dough and created a good crust, using my brand new pizza pan from the pampered chef, I laid out some of Sidehill Farms' special mango habanero jam.  This is what the jam looks like. I first bought it at my local grocery store, but then decided to place an order with the Vermont store itself on their webpage. The jam is spectacular! The flavor is excellent and its unlike anything I've ever tried before. After spreading the jam to the uncooked pizza dough I added some brie cheese, fresh raspberries, candied walnuts, and some Rosemary. Next I cooked it in the oven at 425 degrees for ten minutes and then broiled it for one minute before it was cooked to perfection.  The mango habanero jam is quite spicy, but the brie cheese, raspberries,...
