Almond Meringue Drops

By Skinnygirl85

Ingredients

• 4 Land O Lakes® Egg whites, at room temperature
• 2 teaspoons almond extract
• 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 225°F. Combine egg whites, almond extract and cream of tartar in large bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until soft peaks form (about 1 minute). Increase speed to high. Beat, gradually adding sugar 2 tablespoons at a time and scraping bowl often, until stiff peaks form and sugar is almost dissolved (2 to 3 minutes).

- It is important to make sure no egg yolk gets into the egg whites. Egg yolk will keep the egg whites from forming stiff peaks.
