4 egg whites, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup granulated sugar

These meringues are a bit too fragile for my taste. I prefer a meringue that's a little more sturdy.

I'm not a huge fan of meringues, but these were actually pretty good. The chocolate flecks added a nice touch of flavor and texture.

These meringues are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my meringues didn't turn out as light and airy as I expected. They were still tasty, but not quite what I was hoping for.
