There's a nice surprise of chocolate inside these frothy kisses. They're my husband's top choice each Christmas. Ingredients:
3 egg whites |
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar |
pinch salt |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
red and green food coloring, optional |
44 milk chocolate kisses |
Directions:
1. Place egg whites in a small bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Beat egg whites until foamy. Sprinkle with cream of tartar and salt; beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and vanilla, beating until stiff peaks form, about 5-8 minutes. If desired, divide batter in half and fold in red and green food coloring.
2. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 1-1/2-in. apart onto lightly greased baking sheets. Press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie and cover it with meringue using a knife.
3. Bake at 275° for 30-35 minutes or until firm to the touch. Immediately remove to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container. Yield: 44 cookies.
