Spring Meringue Recipe
Spring Meringue Recipe - These were so easy to make and will just melt in your mouth!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 4 Egg whites
- 1 cup Sugar
- pinch salt
- ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
- Food coloring
- Pastel sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 225 degrees. Separate four eggs and pour the egg whites into a stand mixer bowl.
- Add a pinch of salt and ½ teaspoon of cream of tartar and mix together until the egg whites turn frothy.
- Gradually mix in 1 cup of sugar, one tablespoon at a time, until soft peaks have formed and the mixture has become stiff.
- Scoop some of the meringue into another bowl and add your food coloring. I made 3 colors, pink, orange and lavender so I did this process three times.
- If you want a fancier looking meringue, spoon the colored meringue into a pastry bag with a star tip and squeeze into onto a greased cookie sheet or one covered with Silpat. You can also just use a spoon to drop small spoon fulls of meringue onto a cookie sheet.
- Sprinkle some sprinkles on top and bake at 225 degrees for 2 hours.

Notes
- This meringue recipe doesn't spread out much, so you can place them fairly close together.
- Use room-temperature eggs.
- Be sure to separate egg whites from yolks very carefully as even a small amount of yolk can affect the whipping of the whites.
