Calico Meringues
(Barry's mom's recipe - can easily be cut in half)
2 egg whites
1/2 c sugar
pinch of cream of tartar (if you have it)
can add 3/4 c plain m&m's if you want. or choc chips. or crushed peppermints. andes choc chips are great at Christmas
Beat egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually beat in sugar to make a stiff meringue. Fold in candy or choc chips, if desired.
Drop mixture by teaspoonfuls onto greased & floured cookie sheet. (I don't flour it...I think it's weird haha). Garnish each with an m&m, if desired.
Bake in 250 degree oven for 30 minutes. Cookie should be firm to the touch, but not browned. Cool on cookie shirt or wire rack. Store tightly covered.
For fun, you can drizzle a little melted choc or even white almond bark.
*don't call them Calico Meringues unless you have m&m's in them...haha...people won't trust you...I call them Peppermint Meringues or Cocoa Meringues, etc, depending on what I added. They're perfect without any flavoring. Fun
