Cardamon Meringues Cookies

by: Virginia Brubaker

Ingredients For: Cardamon Meringues Cookies

3 egg whites
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon cardamom

Instructions For: Cardamon Meringues Cookies

Beat egg whites with electric mixer, at low speed until they get foamy, then at high speed until they form stiff peaks. (My test for this is that I can pick up the bowl and turn it sideways without the egg whites moving.) Note that your bowl and beaters must be absolutely grease-free for this to work properly.

Gradually add the sugar, perhaps an eighth of a cup at a time, and continue to beat at high speed for a few minutes after each addition of sugar. (This is a nice time to tidy up your kitchen cabinets, returning to the mixer to scrape down the sides of the bowl often.) When all the sugar has been beaten in, the egg whites should look shiny. Add the cardamom and beat in as briefly as possible.

Drop the mixture in small mounds (or tiny mounds if you have the patience!) on baking sheets that have been covered with foil or kraft paper. Bake at 250 to 275 degrees Fahrenheit for 90 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the meringues in the oven, preferably overnight. Then peel them from the foil or paper and store in airtight containers.

We like these best when they are baked at a low enough temperature to avoid browning and for a long enough time to totally dry them. YMMV. Perfectly baked, they explode in your mouth, than melt into a yummy mix of sugar and spice. The exploding part is a good reason to make them really small, so they can be popped in the mouth whole. This keeps them from sending meringue shards all over your furniture when someone tries to bite them!
