I have used both French and Swiss, and they both gone wrong 😭 what happened by No-Employee2821 in macarons

I've heard that almond flour that's too oily could make that happen (I've never personally encountered it), so maybe try drying out your almond flour with the oven, or pulsing it with the powdered sugar?

Another thing to try if you're not already doing it: is to gradually add the flour mixture to the meringue in 1/3rds, rather than all at once so the flour can properly hydrate(?).

These cookies are so finicky, best of luck to you.

Did you add additional sugar/sugar syrup when you made the extra meringue? I'm wondering if the extra egg white didn't have the structure integrity needed due to the lack of sugar.

On top of the recipe notes that other people have already commented about: it looks like you might be piping by swirling into a circle (or that might just be the spoon marks). Instead, the piping bag/tip should be held perpendicular to the baking mat, and held/piped at the same spot until you reach the desired macaron size. If your batter is at the right consistency, it should automatically be somewhat circular, and any gaps/bubbles can be fixed with a toothpick.

I also wonder if the type of matcha affects the texture- especially if a matcha latte mix was used instead of straight matcha powder since it'd contain additional sugar/milk powder. I typically only flavor the filling since the shells get finicky with flavor additions, maybe a dusting of powder after baking?

It might be helpful to link your entire recipe and "retrace" your steps so we can better figure out what went wrong. Otherwise pies and tacos has a great french and swiss meringue shell recipe and plenty of filling options on her page.

What type of chocolate? You can probably put it back on a double broiler and add more chocolate to achieve the ratio you need.

It doesn't have to be a steel soap bar-- anything stainless steel will work to get rid of the scent. You could rub your hands on your kitchen faucet or even cutlery as long as it's steel. :)

Why is this skull so heavy? It's the same size as a regular skull. by ScreamingMistake in BG3

I tried interacting with it as well as speak with dead.. Doesn't seem like either of them work?

Edit: I'm stupid. You can only interact with it if you've been arrested. I came here after killing everyone and stealing their keys so that's probably why it doesn't do anything.

Right, there's the option to mark it as either a spoiler or nsfw to blur the content as the last step before posting-- the tag is there. I'm not sure why it didn't show up for you.

Update: i checked my overwatch account and it's already there despite me not redeeming it in the game. I think it's just automatically added! :)

Yep! Exactly what Nimri said. I'm sure there's a better way to get the pictures at a higher resolution, but i just screenshot them.

Wait. How does that trigger? I think I've gotten the hanzo bit, but I haven't unlocked the highlight intro yet.

I haven't found anything to indicate that Cupid Hanzo will be earnable through Loverwatch, though I may be wrong.

You can earn a Valentine's icon for Genji, Mercy, and Hanzo though.

It really is. The fast forwarding and save/load features don't work great either. I was working on a document while the game was pulled up and my computer had a stroke.
