Step-By-Step Instructions
- Sift together powdered sugar and almond flour twice to ensure a fine mixture. In a large bowl, whip egg whites until foamy, gradually adding granulated sugar. Whisk until stiff peaks form, about 5-7 minutes.
 - Gently incorporate green gel food coloring into the meringue until mixed. Fold in the sifted mixture carefully to avoid deflating the meringue.
 - Transfer the macaron batter into a piping bag and pipe tree shapes or circles about 1.5 inches wide on lined baking sheets. Rest for 30-60 minutes until a skin forms.
 - Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C) and bake for 14-16 minutes, rotating trays halfway through. Remove when they have formed a ‘foot’ and cool on sheets.
 - In a bowl, beat the softened butter until light and fluffy. Gradually mix in powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract, then fold in crumbled snack cakes.
 - Pair macaron shells, pipe filling on one shell, sandwich with another, and for an extra festive touch, drizzle with melted white chocolate and sprinkle decorations.
 - Refrigerate assembled macarons in an airtight container for at least 24 hours to enhance flavors before serving.

Notes
