Prep Time:
20m
Bake/Cook Time:
1h
Yield:
36 meringues

These airy, sweet and light cookies will melt in your mouth. Just a few ingredients and so easy to make, these meringue cookies would be perfect by themselves. But we go the extra mile and dip them in melted chocolate. A little bite of heaven.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 275°F. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place egg whites in a medium mixing bowl. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed for 20 seconds.
  3. Add cream of tartar and continue to beat for 1-2 minutes or until soft peaks form. Continue beating on high speed, gradually adding sugar one tablespoon at a time.
  4. Beat until egg whites are stiff and glossy. Do not underbeat. Fold in mint extract and food coloring.
  5. Spoon mixture into pastry bag. Pipe (36) 1 1/2 inch diameter kisses, 1 inch apart on parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 1 hour or until meringues are dry looking and have small cracks on the surface.
  6. Turn off oven. Let meringues stand in oven for 1 hour.
  7. Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High for 1 minute, stirring until melted. Microwave an additional 15-20 seconds to melt chocolate, if needed. Dip bottoms of meringues in melted chocolate. Refrigerate until set.
