  2. Whip egg whites until frothy, add granulated sugar gradually, and beat until stiff peaks form.
  3. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the meringue in three parts until the batter flows smoothly.
  4. Pipe batter onto baking sheets, tap gently to release air bubbles.
  5. Let the piped macarons rest for 30-60 minutes until a firm skin forms.
  6. Bake at 300°F for 10-15 minutes; cool on the tray before transferring to a wire rack.
  7. Beat butter, powdered sugar, salt, vanilla, and milk until light and fluffy.
  8. Pair macaron shells, pipe buttercream on one, fill with apple pie filling and add second shell on top.
  9. Melt candy wafers and drizzle over assembled macarons, sprinkle with crushed graham crackers if desired.
