Jell O Meringue Cookies Recipes

MERINGUE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). To prevent burning you can bake on an air cushion baking sheet or put parchment paper on a regular cookie sheet.
• Beat egg whites, salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla until very firm. Gradually add sugar and mix. Fold in chocolate chips.
• Drop by teaspoonfuls on pan. Bake 300 degrees for 25 minutes. They should only be lightly browned.

JELLO MERINGUES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Move rack to center of the oven. Line cookie sheets with aluminum foil.
• Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Add the jello powder 2 tablespoons at a time while continuing to beat. The meringue should form stiff peaks.
• Drop mixture onto lined cookie sheets and bake in preheated oven 1 hour. Turn oven off and allow meringues to stand in unopened oven at least an hour.
• Store in tightly sealed containers.
• NOTE: If you prefer, substitute regular sugar for the jello.
• Chopped drained maraschino cherries, mini-chocolate chips or chopped nuts may be mixed into the batter.

PINK COOKIES - MERINGUE JELLO COOKIES

Steps:

• Carefully seperate egg whites from yolks - ANY yolk left in the egg whites and you will not be able to make the meringue!
• In a clean dry bowl whip egg whites, white vinegar and salt until stiff (but not dry!).
• Add in sugar and jello powder (Traditionally we use Red Jello - such as raspberry or Cherry -- ).
• Fold in chocolate chips
• On buttered cookie sheet, drop spoonfuls of meringue - I do smaller, bite sized cookies.
• Bake on a buttered cookie sheet for 30 minutes at 250* then turn off the oven and let them sit there over night.
• Do not peek or open the oven! They will turn out soft and chewy!
• Preparation time is to make the meringue - Cooking time is total time to make!
