Easy Jello Meringue Cookies: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients

– 3 large egg whites
– 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 tablespoon Jello powder (any flavor)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/4 teaspoon salt


Instructions

Creating Easy Jello Meringue Cookies is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Egg Whites: In a clean, dry mixing bowl, add the egg whites. Ensure there is no yolk present, as this can affect the whipping process.
3. Add Cream of Tartar: Add the cream of tartar to the egg whites. This will help stabilize the meringue.
4. Whip Egg Whites: Using an electric mixer, whip the egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form.
5. Gradually Add Sugar: Slowly add the granulated sugar, a tablespoon at a time, while continuing to whip the mixture. This process should take about 5 minutes until the meringue is glossy and stiff peaks form.
6. Incorporate Jello Powder: Gently fold in the Jello powder, vanilla extract, and salt. Be careful not to deflate the meringue.
7. Pipe the Meringue: Transfer the meringue mixture to a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe small mounds onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
8. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the cookies feel dry to the touch and can easily lift off the parchment.
9. Cool the Cookies: Once baked, turn off the oven and leave the cookies inside for an additional 30 minutes to cool completely. This helps them set properly.
10. Serve or Store: Once cooled, serve the cookies immediately or store them in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
