VALENTINES MERINGUE HEARTS

It's my first time making meringue and it is SO easy!

For about 12 medium sized meringue cookies.

Preheat oven to 175F / 80C

2 egg whites

1/2 cup  /  100g sugar

A pinch cream of tartar (if you have it)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract!

Put the egg whites with the sugar and cream of tartar in a heatproof bowl, and place it in a simmering pan. Mix with an electric mixer until warm and sugar dissolved, about 3 to 3 1/3 minute. 

Take the bowl off the heat, and continue to whisk for a long time! About 10 minutes. Start slow and speed up. 

Add vanilla, and food coloring if you want. Mix well. 

Put in a piping bag and pipe onto parchment paper.

Place in the oven right away and let them stay for about 2 hours. 

I didnt have parchment paper...

After two hours + chilling
