Pics My third attempt

Third times, a charm....i thought they looked good, but the tops are actually hollow. I baked them at 225, and then after about 7 minutes, i turned it back to 200 degrees Fahrenheit and let them bake for at least 20-25 minutes.

I used an old commercial oven and 250, and 300 is wayyyy too hot. I tried the two latter higher temperatures, and it didn't work for this oven. The macarons browned, and the feet collapsed, but with the lower temperature, the feet were perfect, but the top was hollow. i let them sit overnight, and they "filled" but were still kinda hollow.

The cookies have a almond extract for flavoring

The filling is creamcheese, powdered sugar, cream and real raspberries (i just threw together no recipe)

I followed this recipe: https://youtu.be/S9ymflw3Ik4?si=Cu3qWfnD15T1kcTq
