Total time: 
 
Ingredients
  • 4 egg whites
  • ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (or desired flavor)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 225ºF.
  2. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar. When egg whites begin to get foamy, start adding the sugar very slowly.
  3. Beat until stiff peaks form. Mix in extract.
  4. Fit a piping bag with a large piping tip, such as a 1M. Using a spatula, scoop meringue onto bag. Pipe onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour. The bottoms should be slightly golden and the exterior should be firm, not sticky, to the touch.
