Black Sesame Macarons

More macarons! This time I replaced the cocoa powder with black sesame, and filled it with a black sesame-white chocolate whipped ganache. I used the same recipe as my chocolate macarons, but replaced the cocoa powder with an equal weight of ground sesame seeds, which I whizzed in my blender and sieved.. a highly tedious task! The flavour was good, although, as in the case with most macarons, I found them way too sweet! The filling is a whipped white chocolate ganache flavoured with more ground sesame seeds. I accidentally overwhipped the ganache so it split a little bit. Oh well, it still tastes good!
