Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Butter and flour a baking sheet.
- In a glass or metal bowl, whip egg whites until foamy using an electric mixer. Sprinkle in sugar a little at a time, while continuing to whip at medium speed. When the mixture becomes stiff and shiny like satin, stop mixing, and transfer the mixture to a large pastry bag. Pipe the meringue out onto the prepared baking sheet using a large round tip or star tip.
- Place the meringues in the oven and place a wooden spoon handle in the door to keep it from closing all the way. Bake for 3 hours, or until the meringues are dry, and can easily be removed from the pan. Allow cookies to cool completely before storing in an airtight container at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 110C/ 100C fan/gas ¼.
- Line 2 baking sheets with non-stick liner or parchment paper (meringue can stick on greaseproof paper and foil).
- Tip 4 large egg whites into a large clean mixing bowl (not plastic). Beat them on medium speed with an electric hand whisk until the mixture resembles a fluffy cloud and stands up in stiff peaks when the blades are lifted.
- Now turn the speed up and start to add 115g caster sugar, a dessertspoonful at a time. Continue beating for 3-4 seconds between each addition. It's important to add the sugar slowly at this stage as it helps prevent the meringue from weeping later. However, don't over-beat. When ready, the mixture should be thick and glossy.
- Sift one third of the 115g icing sugar over the mixture, then gently fold it in with a big metal spoon or rubber spatula. Continue to sift and fold in the remaining icing sugar a third at a time. Again, don't over-mix. The mixture should now look smooth and billowy.
- Scoop up a heaped dessertspoonful of the mixture. Using another dessertspoon, ease it on to the baking sheet to make an oval shape. Or just drop them in rough rounds, if you prefer.
- Bake for 1 ½-1 ¾ hours in a fan oven, 1 ¼ hours in a conventional or gas oven, until the meringues sound crisp when tapped underneath and are a pale coffee colour.
- Leave to cool on the trays or a cooling rack. (The meringues will now keep in an airtight tin for up to 2 weeks, or frozen for a month.) Serve two meringues sandwiched together with a generous dollop of softly whipped double cream.

- 1. In the bowl of a clean stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk egg whites on high speed until bubbles start to form. While continuing to mix, slowly add sugar. Continue to whisk until shiny, stiff peaks form. 2. Remove bowl from the mixer and use a clean rubber spatula to gently fold in powdered sugar until fully incorporated, taking care not to overmix or deflate the meringue. 3. Now you can use the meringue to pipe and bake as needed for your desired recipe.
- To make your French meringue into baked meringue kisses, move the oven rack to a lower position and preheat oven to 200°F. Dab a little bit of meringue onto the corners of a baking sheet, and line with parchment paper. (Alternatively, line a baking sheet with a silicon mat.) Using a star tip fitted in a pastry bag, pipe meringue onto baking sheet into cookies. Bake until meringues are dry and can be removed from parchment, about 2–3 hours. Turn off the oven and cool meringues inside, at least one hour and up to overnight.
