Strawberry Meringue Cookies
Thursday, January 8, 2009 | Time: 1:47 PM
Y'know, I've always had trouble making meringue cookies. They've been too eggy or too flat or just plain weird. But today I tried once again and actually managed to make a decent cookie! I think having a little patience and using cream of tartar is a very helpful thing XD
This makes about 2 dozen cookies.
Strawberry Meringue Cookies
adapted from Chocolate Meringue Cookies recipe at Allrecipes.com
- 3 egg whites
- 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 2/3 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup smashed fresh (or drained, frozen) strawberries
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Make sure you drain the strawberries well. Try pressing them on a fine sieve with a fork. Let the juice drip into a bowl to use in something else.
- Combine egg whites and cream of tartar. Beat until the whites form soft peaks. Slowly add sugar; beat until stiff peaks form, and mixture becomes glossy. Fold in strawberries.
- Drop mixture by spoon fulls greased cookie sheet. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
If you want to be fancy you can load these into a piping bag with a star tip and do it like you see them at shops! They're just as tasty eaither way.
I also made some of these with a little bit of chocolate-mint coffee and cocoa powder. Whats a little bit? Say 1 tsp.
YUM <3
