- 2 egg whites room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 2/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking trays with parchment and set aside.
- Whisk your egg whites until foamy. Stir in the cream of tartar and beat until it just starts to look foamy. Slowly mix in half of the sugar. Once combined you can add the extract and food color if using. Whip in the remaining sugar until incorporated and glossy.

- Dip in chocolate if you prefer and enjoy!
Notes
You can use other flavor options by substituting the vanilla extract with raspberry, lemon or almond.
Food coloring is a fun way to give these a new look.
