Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (162°C) and line baking trays with silicone mats.
  2. Whip egg whites until foamy, gradually add sugar and cream of tartar, and beat until stiff peaks form.
  3. Sift together almond flour, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder, then gently fold into the meringue.
  4. Pipe small circles onto the trays and tap them to release air bubbles.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, checking for doneness; they should have feet and a crisp shell.
  6. Prepare the Nutella ganache by microwaving chocolate, Nutella, butter, and heavy cream until smooth.
  7. Once the shells are cool, pipe ganache onto one shell, sprinkle with chopped Ferrero Rocher, and sandwich with a second shell.
  8. Dip the tops in melted chocolate and garnish with toasted hazelnuts or gold leaf if desired.
  9. Chill assembled macarons in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving.
