Apple Cinnamon Macaron

These shells were done with the Italian method, totally annoyed with the 'nipples' on the shells... they should behave better than that!  Rawr!
For the shells, I put 3 tsp of cinnamon in the dry ingredient and then weigh out the rest of the dry ingredients.
For the filling, I used this filling,  but modified.

So, it asked for 1/4 cup of butter (room temp)
3 cups of powdered sugar
1 tsp of vanilla
2 tsp of cinnamon
3 tbsp of apple juice
Whip all ingredients until smooth

Instead of all the powdered sugar, I substituted 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp of honey.  Some people use agave nectar, but honey is just as good.  As above, whip everything together until smooth.  The flavor is still there, but no corn starch in case anybody is sensitive or allergic to it.
