HOT COCOA MERINGUES



Hot Cocoa Meringues image

Like the frothy topping on a cup of cocoa, these swirled chocolate meringue cookies are light, airy and-of course-dotted with marshmallows. For those who didn't grow up with meringues as a holiday cookie tray staple, it's a great time to get familiar with this delicate cookie. As alternative diets and gluten sensitivities become more prevalent, it's important to bake at least some cookies that'll make all your guests feel jolly, no matter how they eat! Like all meringues, this cookie does not use any flour, so it's gluten free. But we firmly believe that this cookie is much more about what is included than what isn't. Mixing Hershey's™ Special Dark™ cocoa in to part of the batter not only delivers rich chocolate taste (quite an accomplishment for a cookie that's so airy) but it also makes a beautiful swirl that makes them eye-catching. These cookies are perfect for bakers who want to expand their baking skills. Be sure to read the recipe all the way through before you start-a good idea for any cookie-so that you're set up to succeed!

Tips for Making the Best Hot Chocolate Meringues:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of your chocolate will directly impact the flavor of your meringues. Choose a chocolate with a high cocoa content (70% or higher) and a rich, насыщенный flavor.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites: Overbeaten egg whites will result in tough, chewy meringues. Beat the egg whites until they are stiff peaks, but not dry.
  • Add the chocolate carefully: Once the egg whites are beaten, fold in the melted chocolate gently. Overmixing will deflate the egg whites and make the meringues dense.
  • Bake the meringues at a low temperature: Meringues should be baked at a low temperature (200°F) for a long time (1-2 hours). This will help them to dry out and become crisp.
  • Let the meringues cool completely before serving: Once the meringues are baked, let them cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This will help them to set and become firm.

Conclusion:

Hot chocolate meringues are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are light and airy, with a rich chocolate flavor. These meringues can be enjoyed on their own or used to top other desserts, such as pies, cakes, and ice cream. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create these delightful treats that will be enjoyed by people of all ages.
