Mint Meringues
MINT MERINGUES
2 egg whites
1/8 tsp salt
1/8 tsp cream of tarter
1/8 tsp peppermint extract
6-8 drops green food coloring, optional
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
In a small mixing bowl, beat egg whites, salt, cream of tarter,
extract and food coloring if desired on medium speed until soft peaks
form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff
glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved, about 6 minutes. Gently fold
in chocolate chips.
Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto parchment paper-lined
baking sheets. Bake at 250° for 40-45 minutes or until firm to the
touch. Turn oven off; leave meringues in oven for 1 1/2 hours. Remove
to wire racks. Store in an airtight container.
Yield:32 cookies

Re: Mint Meringues
I don't think I could eat those; they look too real! I would feel like a cannibal, lol.
