How to Make Meringue Cookies

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 200°.

  2. Step 2

    With a hand mixer, beat egg whites until frothy. Mix in sugars until stiff peaks start to form. Do not over mix.

  3. Step 3

    Tint with food coloring if desired, or add nuts or dark chocolate chips and fold in gently.

  4. Step 4

    Transfer dough to a pastry bag fitted with a fluted tip and pipe meringues 2 inches apart onto a baking sheet (or use 2 spoons to drop mounds of meringue onto baking sheet). Bake in oven for 2 hours. Turn off oven, but do not remove cookies. Leave in oven for at least 2 hours, or overnight (do not open oven door).

  5. Step 5

    Store in an airtight container.
