A variation on the typical meringue recipe that I discovered by accident. A little chewier and maplier than usual.

  • In a large glass or metal bowl, whip egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually add white sugar and confectioners sugar 1 tablespoon at a time while continuing to whip to stiff glossy peaks. Mix in the maple extract. Spoon meringue onto the prepared cookie sheets in 1 inch circles.

  • Place in the preheated oven, and immediately reduce the temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until cookies are dry and easy to remove from the paper.

Partner Tip

Reynolds® parchment can be used for easier cleanup/removal from the pan.

I really liked these meringues. I did change the recipe some thus the four stars. I had to add 1/4 cup more confectioners' sugar and I used 1 tsp double strength vanilla instead of the maple flavoring. Then after I baked the meringues I let them sit in the oven over night like a "forgotten cookie". Read More

This was my first time making meringue cookies. Mine turned out hollow inside. I may have done something wrong. I didn't care all that much for the chewy texture but they tasted okay. Don't think I would make them again though. Read More
