About This Recipe

"I do not remember where I got this recipe, but I have been making it at christmas every year. I really love them! They are light and puffy and sweet. Yum!"

Ingredients

3 egg whites, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 tablespoons raspberry gelatin powder
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 cup miniature white chocolate chips

Directions

Heat oven to 250º.
Beat egg whites with salt.
Add gelatin and sugar gradually; beat until soft peaks form and sugar is dissolved.
Beat in vinegar.
Fold in white chocolate chips. (I actually prefer not to use these -- but my husband likes it with them)
Drop one teaspoons worth of meringue onto an un-greased cookie sheet lined with parchment or brown paper. [If you make them too big, they won’t cook all of the way through. Also, I have found that it works best if you use a non-stick cookie sheet.].
Bake 25 minutes. Turn oven off and leave the cookies in the oven 20 minutes longer.

Reviews

"These pretty cookies make a great addition to a Christmas plate, or would be perfect for Valentine's Day. I thought they were just a bit sweet, so I might cut back a bit on the sugar next time to see if that balances them out. I used blackberry fusion jello and that worked fine. Both my daughters commented separately that these taste like cotton candy. I was afraid my egg whites weren't going to beat up properly, but I kept at it and they eventually did. They weren't fluffy, but they were stiff. Thank for sharing this great recipe!"
