Ingredients

  • 6 egg whites
  • ¼ tsp (1.25 mL) cream of tartar
  • 1 ½ cups (375 mL) granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

  • Step 2

    Beat egg whites in large glass or metal mixing bowl with electric mixer until frothy. Add cream of tartar; beat until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tbsp (15 mL) at a time, until sugar is dissolved and stiff, glossy peaks form. Fold in vanilla.

  • Step 3

    To make meringues, dollop about 2 tbsp (30 mL) mixture per meringue onto baking sheet. Alternatively, pipe mixture onto sheets using a piping bag with a star tip or a re-sealable bag with the corner snipped.

  • Step 4

    Bake in preheated 275°F (135°C) oven until firm, about 55 to 60 minutes. Cool completely and store meringues in airtight container. Makes about 48 meringues.
