I love meringues. They are super simple, and best of all, you can forget about them. Yes, it’s true. You just mix up the egg whites, and sugar and whatnot, then put them in the oven, turn off the oven, and in the morning, you have cookies.
So easy.
I have used a few recipes in the recent past for these light treats.
One was from the wonderful Gluten Free collection of recipes at allrecipes.com, while the other one was from the Gluten Free part of the Land O Lakes website.
The allrecipes one can contain chocolate chips, and my tip is to not make the cookies much bigger than they say, as I found that the smaller ones tasted better. The really big (2 tbsp or so) ones were kind of chewy in the bottom, while the smaller ones were more melt in your mouth. This is an overnight (or 5 hour) recipe. Oh, and it’s vanilla flavored.
The Land O Lakes one is really simple, and it only takes 2 hours of cooking time, 1 hour with the oven on, one hour with it off. It is an almond flavored recipe, and very good.
Sorry, no pictures today. I have been feeling a lot better with my thyroid, but this has been a super busy week, so sorry for the lack of posts =D.

PS – If I don’t get to say it before, Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy your turkey, and some pumpkin pie!
