Chocolate Swirl Meringues Recipe By Tasty

CHOCOLATE SWIRL MERINGUE COOKIES

Steps:

• Place egg whites in a stand mixer bowl fitted with a whisk and whip until stiff peaks hold and meringue does not slide out when bowl is turned upside.. Gradually add in both sugars and then vanilla and vinegar. Increase speed and whip until mixture is free of sugar grit when rubbed between two fingers and the meringue holds stiff and glossy peaks.
• Drizzle chocolate on top of meringue (DO NOT MIX IN). Spoon out and drop mixture onto parchment lined bake sheet.
• Repeat step 2 until all the chocolate and meringue is used
• Bake meringue for about 40-50 minutes or meringue easily peels away from parchment paper. Cool on a wire rack. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Optional: Serve with some Nutella.

RAINBOW SWIRL MERINGUES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Add the sugar to a baking sheet and bake for 7 minutes. The edges may begin to caramelize - this is good! Remove the sugar from the oven and leave the oven on.
• In a large clean, dry bowl, whip the egg whites with an electric hand mixer on low speed until foamy, then add the salt. Continue whipping on high speed until medium peaks form.
• Add the toasted sugar to the egg whites 1 tablespoon at a time, increasing the mixer speed gradually as you add more sugar. Once all of the sugar is incorporated, continue whipping for 5-7 minutes, until the meringue is very thick and shiny.
• Add in vanilla, just whipping until incorporated.
• Prop open a piping bag or zip-top bag in a tall drinking glass. Using wooden skewers, lightly paint 2 thin stripes of different-colored gel food coloring on opposite sides of the bag. Paint additional bags with more colors, if desired.
• Fill each bag with the meringue batter, dividing evenly amongst different colors, if using.
• Pipe 1-inch (2-cm) wide "kisses" of meringue onto a baking sheet about ½ inch (1 cm) apart.
• Bake for about 1 hour, or until you can easily lift a kiss off of the paper.
• Cool the meringues on the baking sheet at room temperature until no longer warm.
• To fill, pipe buttercream icing around the edge of a cookie and place a small dollop of jam in the center. Sandwich with another cookie.
• Enjoy!

CHOCOLATE SWIRL MERINGUE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F (121°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
• Melt the chocolate first so it can cool down before folding into the batter. You can melt the chocolate in a double boiler or the microwave. If using the microwave: place the chopped chocolate in a medium heat-proof bowl. Melt in 20 second increments, stirring after each increment until completely melted and smooth. Set aside.
• In a completely clean residue-free large glass or metal mixing bowl, using a handheld mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt together on high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. With the mixer running on high speed, slowly add the sugar and beat until stiff glossy peaks form, about 2 more minutes. Do not over-beat.
• Gently fold in the chocolate. To maintain swirls, you don't want to completely mix it in. Don't worry if you don't use all 2 ounces- you can add some to the piping bag in the next step.
• Add an open star piping tip (I recommend Wilton 1M) to your piping bag (disposable or reusable). Drizzle any leftover chocolate along the inside of your piping bag (this is optional). Add the meringue batter. It won't all fit, so only use half to start.
• Pipe 1.5 inch swirls until you use up all the batter. See the video tutorial above if you need a visual. The cookies don't spread, so you can pipe them just 1-2 inches apart. Top each with sprinkles, if desired.
• Bake for 1 and 1/2 hours. (You can bake both baking sheets at once.) Do not open the oven as the meringues bake. Turn off the oven after 1.5 hours and let the meringues sit inside as the oven cools for 30 minutes or until the oven has cooled completely.
• Remove meringues from the oven and cool completely on the baking sheets. Once cool, use a flat spatula to remove the meringues from the baking sheets.
• Cover and store meringues at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
