ABOUT Meringue Kisses RECIPE

Though i am not a fan of baking with eggs but sometimes, few things attract you to such an extent that couldn't stop yourself from doing that. One such tempting thing was meringue kisses for me. Whenever i see these beauties , they lure me to make them. So finally i overcame my baking without egg rule and tried these awesome gorgeous beauties . And to my surprise they came out almost perfect, not only in look but in texture too. I am jumping with joy to see them. My kids are super happy to have these and are proudly sharing with their friends too.

Instructions

First of all take eggwhites in a big bowl and beat at low to medium speed with a hand beater till it becomes little foamy. Add lemon juice and continue beating.
Add sugar little by little with your beater on. Now increase the speed of beater and beat till stiff peaks are formed.
Now take a big piping bag fitted with big round/star nozzel.
For colourful pattern , take little gel colours with toothpick and make vertical lines at some distance, inside the piping bag. Now fill it with prepared meringue.
On a baking tray lined with butter paper, pipe 1 and 1/2 - 2 inch size meringue kisses.
Now bake it in a preheated oven at 100°C for 1 hr 30 mins or till it can be easily lifted without sticking to the butter paper.
Let it cool inside the oven with door slightly open. When it cooled down completely , store in an airtight jar.
So bake these beauties and enjoy with your tea or give in kids snacks box. You can prepare a big batch and store in freezer and enjoy chilled crispies whenever you want.
