Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 16

FIRST MIX FLOUR, BAKING POWDER AND SALT
1 3/4 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
IN A SEPARATE BOWL PLACE BUTTER, AND BEAT WITH GRANULATED SUGAR.
ADD EGG YOLKS AND WHOLE EGG, AND VANILLA AND MIX WELL.
1 stick butter, softened
1 c granulated sugar
2 egg yolks, reserve whites
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 whole egg
MIX THE DRY INGREDIENTS INTO THE BUTTER MIXER. THIS WILL BE A VERY STIFF DOUGH, I USE A STAND MIXER.
IN A SEPARATE BOWL BEAT EGG WHITES UNTIL STIFF, AND MIX IN BROWN SUGAR
2 egg whites
1 c light brown sugar
1 pkg 8 oz. of chopped walnuts or pecans; optional

Steps:

  • 1. Grease a 9 X 9 pan, or small rectangular pan; Preheat Oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. If you want to add chopped nuts, they can be placed in the egg white mixture or spread on top of the first layer, the cooky base.
  • 3. Spread the cooky dough in the pan, top with the nuts if desired, and spread the egg white mixture over all.
  • 4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. This does get brown, so you need to check it, and it can get a crackled top which is normal. If you under-bake it, the cooky layer is soggy, so let it get brown, but not burned on top.Cool and then cut into small bars or squares.
  • 5. THIS RECIPE CAN EASILY BE DOUBLED, AND I MADE THEM IN A JELLY ROLL PAN WHICH HOLDS THE DOUBLED RECIPE. IT THEN CAN BE CUT INTO ABOUT 36 BARS.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 large egg whites (use
3/8 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp salt (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Beat the egg whites until they are very frothy. Slowly add the brown sugar, vanilla and salt. Beat to stiff peaks. Put on your recipe and bake at 325 degrees for 16 to 20 minutes (depending on your oven

Tips:

  • Use the freshest egg whites possible. Older egg whites will not whip up as well and will result in a less stable meringue.
  • Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature before you start whipping them. This will help them to whip up more quickly and easily.
  • Add the sugar gradually, while the egg whites are whipping. This will help to prevent the meringue from becoming grainy.
  • Whip the meringue until it reaches stiff peaks. This means that the peaks of the meringue should be firm and hold their shape when you lift the whisk out of the bowl.
  • Be careful not to over-whip the meringue. Over-whipped meringue will become dry and crumbly.
  • Use the meringue immediately after it is made. Meringue will start to deflate over time, so it is best to use it as soon as possible.

Conclusion:

Brown sugar meringue is a delicious and versatile topping for many desserts. It is easy to make and can be flavored with a variety of ingredients. With a little practice, you can create beautiful and impressive meringue desserts that will wow your friends and family.
