Tips for Making Chocolate Chip Meringue Drops:
- Use room-temperature egg whites. This will help them whip up more easily and create a stiffer meringue.
- Make sure your mixing bowl and beaters are completely clean and free of any grease. Any residue can prevent the meringue from whipping up properly.
- Whip the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing the speed as the whites begin to foam. This will help prevent the meringue from becoming grainy.
- Once the meringue is stiff and glossy, add the sugar one tablespoon at a time, beating on low speed until the sugar is completely dissolved. Overbeating the meringue can cause it to become dry and crumbly.
- Fold in the chocolate chips gently, using a rubber spatula. Overmixing can cause the chocolate chips to melt and the meringue to deflate.
- Drop the meringue by rounded tablespoons onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Space the drops about 2 inches apart.
- Bake the meringue drops in a preheated oven at 200°F (93°C) for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the drops are firm and dry to the touch.
- Let the meringue drops cool completely on the baking sheet before storing them in an airtight container at room temperature.
Conclusion:
Chocolate chip meringue drops are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are light and airy, with a crisp exterior and a chewy interior. The addition of chocolate chips adds a touch of sweetness and richness. These cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
