Servings 40 cookies

Ingredients

  

• 4 large eggs
• 1/8 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp cream of tartar optional but recommended
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp pink food coloring

Instructions

 

• Preheat the oven to 225, and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Separate the eggs, making sure not to get any egg yolk in the egg whites (the meringues will not form if egg yolk gets in).
• Add the cream of tartar and salt into the egg whites mixture. With an electric mixture start mixing on high.
• Once the mixture becomes white and bubbly, start gradually adding the sugar.
• Mix until the mixture forms stiff peaks (if you flip your bowl upside down, the mixture should stay intact and have a shiny, white appearance).
• Stir in the pink food coloring and vanilla extract.
• Transfer the mixture into a large piping bag with a small tip, and pipe small hearts onto the parchment paper. You can put them close together, as they do not spread.
• Bake the meringues for 1 hour, and allow to completely cool before consuming.
