This simple Meringue recipe was given to me by a friend several years ago. It makes a nice addition to any Christmas cookie tray!
Ingredients:
2 egg whites
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp Cream of Tarter
3/4 cup sugar
drop of red or green food coloring
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips
1/4 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Beat egg whites, salt and Cream of Tarter until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar while beating until stiff peaks form. Add food coloring. Fold in chocolate chips and nuts.
Drop by teaspoon onto the papered cookie sheet. Bake at 300 degrees F for 25 minutes. Cool slightly before removing from the baking sheet onto a cooling rack. Store in a sealed container.

Thanks for sharing! I've made a similar recipe and needed this reminder to use up those egg whites in my fridge. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
ReplyDeleteI just love these light cookies! Thanks for the reminder. My recipe is called "Nighty Nites" and they go into a preheated oven with the heat turned off and they spend the night in the oven. =) Always a special treat. I love chopped candy canes in mine too.
