Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the Meringue
  • 4 pieces Egg Whites Make sure to use clean equipment.
  • 1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar Helps stabilize the meringue.
  • 1 cup Sugar Free Powdered Sugar See post for details and alternatives.
  • 1 packets Sugar Free Kool Aid Flavor of your choice.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Ensure your mixing bowl and beaters are clean and free of grease.
Mixing Ingredients
  1. In a mixer, blend the egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed until foamy.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar-free powdered sugar and Kool Aid.
  3. Gradually add the sugar and Kool Aid mix to the foamy egg whites one tablespoon at a time. Continue mixing until stiff peaks form, about 18-20 minutes.
Shaping and Baking
  1. Using a tablespoon or piping bag, drop meringue swirls onto the lined baking sheets, leaving space between them.
  2. Bake for 90 minutes or until cookies are starting to brown at the edges.
  3. Turn off the oven and let the cookies sit inside for 1 to 8 hours, depending on your preferred crispiness.

Notes

These cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for a few days. Keep them out of humid areas to maintain crispiness. You can also experiment with different Kool Aid flavors for variety.
