Holiday Meringue Miniature Recipe
Ingredients :
2 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon white vinegar
Dash salt
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar
Red gel food coloring
How To Make Holiday Meringue Miniature :
Preheat oven to 225°. Beat egg whites with
vinegar and salt on medium speed until foamy and doubled in volume. Beat in
extracts. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high after
each addition until sugar is dissolved. Continue beating until stiff glossy
peaks form (this may take 10 minutes).
Place a 1/2-inch round tip into a pastry
bag. Paint five stripes of red food coloring inside the length of the pastry
bag. Transfer meringue to pastry bag; pipe dollops 1 inch apart onto
parchments-lined baking sheets.
Bake 1 hour until set and dry. Turn off
oven (do not open oven door); leave meringues in oven 1 hour. Remove and cool
completely on baking sheets. Remove meringues from parchment paper; store in an
airtight container at room temperature.
Test Kitchen tips :
Feel free to mix up the extracts and food
coloring.
These would be amazing as a cake topper
piled on top.
