These crisp meringues simply melt in your mouth. No one would guess that a mere four ingredients could create such a fantastic treat! Margaret Reinhardt, Muskego, Wisconsin Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups brazil nuts |
2 egg whites |
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar |
1/2 cup sugar |
Directions:
1. Using the slicing blade of a food processor, slice Brazil nuts; set aside.
2. In a small bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved, about 6 minutes. Gently fold in nuts.
3. Drop by teaspoonfuls 2 in. apart onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Bake at 275° for 30-35 minutes or until firm to the touch. Cool completely on pans on wire racks. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 3-1/2 dozen.
