“Oh My! Pumpkin Pie!” Macarons

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

   Sift the nut flour with confectioners' sugar and pumpkin pie spice into a small bowl.

   In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until foamy; add cream of tartar and superfine sugar. Whip to a stiff peak.
5. 5
   Sift nut flour over egg mixture and fold together. Scrape batter into a piping bag with round tip sized for desired macaron size. Pipe out identical rounds of batter and let sit until a light skin is formed.
6. 6
   Lower oven to 325 degrees and bake macarons for 10 minutes, rotating halfway between.
7. 7
   Let cool for 5 minutes, and then fill.

   To make filling, place raisins from Diet Delight(R) into a food processor and process until chopped.
