Dynamite home made meringue cookie

Yes Jo omit the 1/2 cup water. I bought the just egg white to try them last year. I made a recipe with the dried eggs and the same recipe with fresh egg whites there was no difference.
They are nice to have in the cupboard if you run out of eggs.

Actually the just whites is the equivalent to 57 egg whites in one can so comparable in price to buying eggs and you don't have to separate them.  I love them. If you want a more uniformed look use a pastry gun/dessert decorator but don't make them too big or they will take longer to dry out.  The recipe is on the can of just whites. 

1 egg = 2tsp of just whites

Hi all!  After searching 3 different stores and not finding the "Just Whites" I had a flash of brilliance!  They sell an egg protein powder in the supplement area - so after looking, I found one (NOW brand) that is just egg whites, nothing added, no flavor!  It is .9g for 1/4 cup.  I will let you all know how it works for these and probably the angel food cake too.

I just made my second batch and they were so much more airy this time-whipped a little longer.  I also used a cake decorator press and they turned out so pretty.  Was a little challenge to get them into the tube, though but I did it. lol  It made 72 cookies!

I put 1/2 tsp real vanilla and 1/2 vanilla butternut.  Can't wait to try some other flavors.

Do they taste like those store bought ones that are SF ?

[izzet]

Hi Joagain....Not at all...I think they are much better but I haven't had any in a long time.  Of course everything is better when you make it  homemade.

yes it is izzet that way you get exactly what you want Don't forget you can use extracts to flavor these any flavor you want

[Doug Varrieur]

You can replace the Kroger sweetener with Zero in this recipe

Sarah you would like these.You can change the flavors very easily by changing extracts or emulsions. I like chocolate mint
