Marshmallowy Meringues

Step 1

Preheat oven to 320°F and line two large baking trays with parchment paper (do not grease).

Step 2

Whisk together the sugars and salt, set aside.

Step 3

Whip the egg whites and cream of tartar in a spotlessly clean bowl with electric beaters until soft peaks form.

Step 4

Gradually add the sugar mixture, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating constantly for 8 to 10 minutes or until mixture is semi-stiff and glossy.

Step 5

Add vanilla and beat to combine.

Step 6

Using a teaspoon, drop meringue onto prepared trays 1” apart.

Step 7

Bake for 20 minutes, until firm but still slightly “marshmallowy” inside.

Step 8

Turn off the oven and cool for 15 minutes, then cool to room temperature.
