Meringues

Here I am yet again with another recipe! This recipe is very easy and you can enjoy them at any time! So, without further ado, the recipe.

I got this recipe from a cookbook by Dinah Bucholz.



Special tools or ingredients: cream of tartar

INGREDIENTS

2 large egg whites, room temperature

1/8 tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. cream of tartar

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract (or any other flavor you would like.)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

Food coloring (optional)

TOOLS

2 baking sheets

medium bowl

beater (stand or hand mixer)

Pastry bag or spoon

Parchment paper

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit or about 105 degrees Celsius. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Pace egg whites, salt, cream of tartar, and vanilla in a large mixing bow and beat unti soft mounds form. Gradually add the sugar into and beat util stiff but still glossy. When I say do not over mix, DO NOT. If you do it will become dry and cottony and you wil have to start all over again. 

2. Fill a pastry bag with the mixture and pipe little rosettes on the baking sheet about a half inch apart. If you do not have a pastry bag, use a spoon and plop them down on the sheet. Bake for one hour, rotating pans and switching shelves halfway through. Then turning the oven off, leave the meringues in the oven another hour to dry out. If you have any leftover meringue mixture after baking, throw it out because it will not be good.

3. Serve and enjoy! 



Now you can enjoy your meringues while watching movies or reading your favorite book!
I hope this recipe worked out for you! Enjoy and happy baking! (Feel free to leave recipe suggestions in the comments!)

Life Update

LIFE UPDATE Not all of my posts will be about cooking or baking, though that is the main reason for this blog. But I also wanted to do a blog where I can share about life. This is just a life update, and this post will tell you what I've been doing, how I'm doing, and whatever else is going on.  JUNE and JULY  I thought my summer was going to be fun, but for me, it's been nothing but dog-sitting. You might think that dog sitting isn't so bad, and I'm overreacting, which I probably am, but you'll understand if you've ever had to dog-sit little demons like I had to.  So most of my June was dog sitting and it was easy and I earned money, so...   this June has been alright.  In between my dog sitting, I went to a church picnic for God and Country Day, which is a thing my church does the Sunday before the Fourth of July, on June 30.  Then, after the picnic, I returned to the house to do more dog sitting. I had to stay at the dog's owner's house, so me and...

Recipe: Cheer-up Chocolate Truffles

Anything with chocolate is wonderful and scrumptious, but these truffles are an easy and delicious chocolate recipe. I actually got the name from an episode from Just Add Magic: Mystery City , but theirs was "Cheer'em'up Mac and Cheese."  One of the times I made this was when my Nana was visiting. I made the mixture and let it chill. Then I made them for us when we were playing a board game. She and my sisters liked it, and I think that anybody who has a sweet tooth will love it! I got this Chocolate Truffle recipe from the American Girl Baking cookbook written by Nicole Hill Gerulat. Special tools or ingredients: heavy cream INGREDIENTS 1/4 cup heavy cream 4 tbsp. or 1/2 cup unsalted butter 8-oz. semisweet chocolate 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract 1/4 cup powdered sugar or unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted TOOLS Saucepan Rubber Spatula Shallow bowl Plastic wrap Melon baller or ice cream scoop Plate Sifter STEPS What are you waiting for?
