  1. The batter was good but baked, it tasted like a caramel rice cake. I like ricecakes but I'm not crazy about them. Likewise with these cookies. I gave this recipe 2 stars because they really are healthy!
     
  2. Awesome! I love meringues and these were absolutely delicious. Pecans and brown sugar add a different but wonderful flavor. At 40 minutes these were still wet inside so I turned off the oven and left for about 30 more minutes. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
     
  3. I'm a big fan of meringues and like trying out new ones every year for my holiday baking. I tried these today and am pretty happy with the results. The flavor is really good...I may have to go back and make more because I've had 3 or 4 of them this afternoon alone! I got 28 huge meringues - and yes, they do turn out huge (expect them to puff up a little more while baking). Next time I would probably make them a little smaller so as to get more out of the batch and perhaps end up with something a little more bite-sized. Bake time in my oven was just over 45 minutes. Thanks so much for posting!!!!!
