Titling Treats: Spooky Ghost Meringues 👻

Dial down the indulgence in Halloween sweets with these straightforward cookies that boast an astonishingly meager trio of low-fat ingredients. Get ready to work those arm muscles with some vigorous mixing!

What You’ll Need:

  • 3 large egg whites, at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

Directions:

  1. Prepare your baking sheets by cutting parchment paper to fit them, then draw 1 1/2-inch circles using a pencil. Flip the paper before placing it on the baking sheets.
  2. Beat the egg whites in a large, clean bowl on medium-low until they turn frothy and opaque.
  3. Introduce the cream of tartar, and crank up the mixer speed to medium. Mix until the egg whites create soft peaks when the mixer is lifted.
  4. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and gradually add the sugar. Continue mixing until the egg whites achieve firm peaks with no drooping when the mixer is lifted.
  5. Scoop the batter into a gallon-sized plastic bag or cake decorating bag, then snip off one corner to squeeze out circular peaks onto the baking sheets. Allow them to bake at 225 degrees for an hour and a half.
  6. Cool the cookies completely before decorating to your heart's content!
