I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Place sugar and star anise in TM bowl and mill for 20 seconds on speed 9. Add cornflour, cocoa and almonds and mill for 5 seconds on speed 9. Scrape down sides of bowl and mill for a further 5 seconds on speed 9. Set aside while you wash and dry the bowl thoroughly.
Insert butterfly into clean, dry bowl and add egg whites. Beat for 2 minutes at 37C on speed 3.5 or until stiff.
Tip beaten egg whites into large bowl then add the sugar mix and gently fold into the egg whites with a large metal spoon. The mixture will be dry at first but will come together as you keep carefully folding.
Pipe or spoon small blobs onto baking trays lined with baking paper leaving plenty of room between them so they have room to expand.
Heat the oven to 160C while you finish piping the macaroons. Leave the macaroons on the bench to skin over before you bake them - at least half an hour. Bake for 15-20 minutes then allow to cool completely before removing from baking paper and sandwiching together with chocolate icing or ganache.

Thanks for the correction!
I've changed the name!
Sorry to be picky, but I think by definition (c/o Zumbo) these are Macarons, not macaroons
