Ingredients:

  • 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
  • 2 drops green food coloring
  • 6 oz mini chocolate chips

Directions:

  1. Preheat gas oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form, gradually adding in the sugar while beating.
  3. Add mint extract and food coloring.
  4. Stir in the mini chocolate chips by hand.
  5. Drop by teaspoonful onto parchment lined cookie sheets.
  6. Set pans into oven and immediately turn off the heat and leave in the oven overnight (no peeking)- as the oven cools down, the cookies will cook.
  7. OR set the pans in the preheated oven and immediately reduce the heat to 275 F and bake for 50 minutes.
  8. Check 10 minutes early in case your oven runs hot- when done, they should be airy, light puffs that are very crisp and fragile on the exterior.
  9. NOTE: This recipe really is meant for a gas oven;electric ovens don't cool down as quickly and may overcook your meringues so the overnight method isn't recommended.
  10. Instead, if you have an electric oven, simply preheat your oven to 275F and cook for 40-50 minutes.
