• Ready In: 1hr 25mins
• Ingredients: 4
• Serves: 25-35

ingredients

• 3 egg whites
• 12 tablespoons sugar substitute
• 1 tablespoon lime (optional)
• water

directions

1. Preheat oven at 200°C.
2. Beat 3 egg whites at high speed until fluffy enough that you can flip upside down without it falling.
3. While the egg whites are beating put the sugar substitute into saucepan and add water just enough so it makes a thick paste.
4. Boil at medium heat until bubbling and has formed a caramel texture.
5. Add the caramel while the egg whites are still beating.
6. Keep beating until fluffy.
7. On sheets of waxed paper place small drops in any shape you like.
8. Cook for 1 hour or until the top coat is a little stiff but careful not to leave it on high heat because it can easily burn.
9. Cover and let cool for about 30 minutes, then enjoy!
10. **If you want to multiply the recipe just calculate 4 tablespoons of sugar substitute for every egg white you add**.

I followed the recipe exactly and this was bad. It was so bitter we had to throw the whole batch out. Maybe it was the sugar substitute we used - Sugar Twin - but I wouldn't recommend this.
