Directions

  • Preheat the oven to 125ºC.
  • In a clean deep bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar to a stiff foam.
  • Gradually beat in the sugar and continue to beat until the mixture is smooth and glossy and stands up in peaks. Beat in the vanilla.
  • Place in spoonfuls on a lightly greased oven tray.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour – or until set and dry.
  • Remove from the baking tray and store in an air-tight container at room temperature, or in the freezer.
