Time 2h40m

Yield approximately 2 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large egg whites, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Pinch salt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup toasted and finely chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, using a hand beater, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, salt and vanilla until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar and beat until the sugar dissolves and stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes. Gently fold in the chopped nuts.
  • Drop the batter onto silicone mats or parchment lined baking sheets (will need 2) with a teaspoon, spacing at least 2 inches apart. Bake until the meringues are dried through, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. The cookies will remove easily from the parchment or silicone mat when ready.
  • Cook's Note: Do not bake on humid days. Dye these any color to suit a seasonal event. For orange cookies, add 5 drops of food coloring.

These cookies are the perfect combination of sweet and nutty. They're also really easy to make, which is a bonus.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and dense. They didn't taste very good either.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

These cookies were a little too dry for my taste. I think I'll add a little bit of butter next time.

I'm not a big fan of nuts, but these cookies were still really good. The meringue was light and fluffy, and the cookies had a nice chewy texture.

These cookies were easy to make and turned out great! I used chopped walnuts instead of pecans and they were still delicious. Thanks for the recipe!
