???????? Let’s Bake These Delightful Meringues!
1️⃣ Preheat Your Oven and Prepare the Baking Sheet
Start by preheating your oven to 200°F (93°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the meringues from sticking.
2️⃣ Whip the Egg Whites and Sugar
In a clean mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to whisk, until the mixture becomes glossy and forms stiff peaks. The peaks should hold their shape when you lift the whisk.
3️⃣ Add a Hint of Flavor
Gently fold in the vanilla extract to add a subtle touch of flavor to the meringues. Be careful not to overmix; you want to retain the airiness of the whipped egg whites.
4️⃣ Pipe or Spoon the Meringue Dollops
Using a piping bag or a spoon, create dollops of meringue on the lined baking sheet, leaving some space between each meringue. The dollops can be as big or small as you prefer, depending on your desired serving size.
5️⃣ Bake Until Perfectly Crisp
Bake the meringues for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours. The exact baking time may vary based on your oven, so keep a close eye on them. The meringues should be dry to the touch and easily lift off the parchment paper when done.
6️⃣ Dip in Sprinkles for Whimsical Delight
Allow the meringues to cool completely. Once cooled, dip the bottom of each meringue into a bowl of assorted sprinkles, creating a vibrant and whimsical coating. The sprinkles not only add visual appeal but also an extra burst of sweetness.
