Simple meringue cookies have no fat.

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • dash salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Preparation:

In a large mixing bowl on high speed of hand-held electric mixer, beat egg whites with vinegar and salt until foamy and doubled in volume. Beat in almond extract and vanilla. Beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until meringue stands in firm peaks. Drop by teaspoonfuls, 1 inch apart, on brown paper lined cookie sheets. Bake at 250° for 25 minutes, or until crisp. Remove brown paper with meringue cookies to rack to cool completely, then remove from paper. Store meringue cookies tightly covered. Makes about 5 dozen meringue cookies.
