Meringue Cookies
Meringue Cookies are bite-sized, sweet, light and airy! Meringue cookies are made with just 3 ingredients! Egg whites, sugar and flavoring is all it takes!
Servings: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 4 egg whites
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp favorite extract (I like vanilla, raspberry or strawberry!)
- 2 cups chocolate candy melts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 170°. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Using either a stand mixer or electric hand mixer, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Slowly and gradually add in the sugar, mixing well in between each addition.
- Mix in the extract and gel food coloring if desired.
- Transfer the cookie batter to a large piping bag.
- Pipe the cookies out onto the parchment paper. The cookies will not spread at all while baking.
- Bake at 170° for 2 hours.
- Remove the cookies from the oven after they have baked for 2 hours and allow the cookies to cool on the pan.
- While the cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate candy melts. Spread a thin layer onto the bottom of each cookie and then drizzle the remaining chocolate on top.
