Ingredients

  • 2 egg whites (room temperature)
  • 1 dash salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • red and blue food coloring

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 225
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form.
Step 3
While continuing to mix, add sugar slowly and beat until, thick and shiny, and stiff peaks are formed.
Step 4
Mix in vanilla and divide merengue into 3 bowls.
Leave one plain, add red food coloring to one bowl, and add blue food coloring to the last bowl.
Add each color to a separate piping bag (or zip top baggie).
Using a star tip, pipe star shapes (or any shape desired) onto parchment or silicone lined baking sheets.
Step 5
Bake for 45 minutes, then turn off the oven and leave undisturbed for an hour. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
