Time 5h25m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large egg whites, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 250 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt in a large clean dry bowl with a mixer on medium speed until foamy. Increase the speed to medium high and beat until thick and opaque, about 1 more minute. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar, about 1/4 cup at a time, and beat until stiff shiny peaks form, about 5 more minutes.
  • Transfer the meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe 1/2-inch drops that are just touching to form about twenty-four 2- to 3-inch cookies. Bake at 250 degrees F until dry and crisp, 3 to 4 hours. Let cool.

This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. Don't bother trying it.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my meringues turned out flat and chewy.

I tried this recipe and the meringues didn't turn out well. I think I overbeat the egg whites.

This recipe is too complicated for me. I'm not a very good baker.

I'm allergic to eggs, so I can't eat meringues. :(
