Jell O Meringue Cookies Recipes

MERINGUE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). To prevent burning you can bake on an air cushion baking sheet or put parchment paper on a regular cookie sheet.
• Beat egg whites, salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla until very firm. Gradually add sugar and mix. Fold in chocolate chips.
• Drop by teaspoonfuls on pan. Bake 300 degrees for 25 minutes. They should only be lightly browned.

PINK COOKIES - MERINGUE JELLO COOKIES

Steps:

• Carefully seperate egg whites from yolks - ANY yolk left in the egg whites and you will not be able to make the meringue!
• In a clean dry bowl whip egg whites, white vinegar and salt until stiff (but not dry!).
• Add in sugar and jello powder (Traditionally we use Red Jello - such as raspberry or Cherry -- ).
• Fold in chocolate chips
• On buttered cookie sheet, drop spoonfuls of meringue - I do smaller, bite sized cookies.
• Bake on a buttered cookie sheet for 30 minutes at 250* then turn off the oven and let them sit there over night.
• Do not peek or open the oven! They will turn out soft and chewy!
• Preparation time is to make the meringue - Cooking time is total time to make!

JELL-O MERINGUE COOKIES

LOW CARB FLAVORED MERINGUE COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Cut about 1/4 inch off a corner of a heavy gallon-size resealable plastic bag, and push a large-size cake decorating tip (such as a star tip) into the opening. The fit should be tight.
• In a small bowl, stir the gelatin mix with the sugar substitute. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar and salt until stiff peaks form. As you beat the egg whites, gradually add the gelatin mixture, about 1 tablespoon at a time. Spoon the fluffy mixture into the prepared plastic bag, and gently squeeze and twist the bag to force the meringue mixture to the decorating tip. (Do not seal bag, so that air can escape.)
• Squeeze the bag to place golf-ball size dollops of meringue mixture onto the prepared baking sheets. For a decorative effect, twist and lift as you place the cookie on the sheet, to make a pretty shape.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are set and dry, about 1 hour and 30 minutes. Do not open oven door while baking. At end of baking time, turn off oven, open oven door, and allow the cookies to slowly cool in the oven before removing from baking sheets. Store in airtight container.

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Move rack to center of the oven. Line cookie sheets with aluminum foil.
• Beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Add the jello powder 2 tablespoons at a time while continuing to beat. The meringue should form stiff peaks.
• Drop mixture onto lined cookie sheets and bake in preheated oven 1 hour. Turn oven off and allow meringues to stand in unopened oven at least an hour.
• Store in tightly sealed containers.
• NOTE: If you prefer, substitute regular sugar for the jello.
• Chopped drained maraschino cherries, mini-chocolate chips or chopped nuts may be mixed into the batter.
