Ingredients
2
egg whites
½
tsp
vanilla extract
¾
cup
sugar
Few drops lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat oven to 220F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place eggs in a bowl. Whisk the egg whites and vanilla until soft peaks form.
Once they form, it is time to start adding sugar, one tablespoon at the time, whisking well after each addition.
Once all the sugar is used, in the last addition add the lemon juice. This will ensure you have a firm mixture.
Spoon the egg whites into a piping bag.
Pipe the meringue onto the baking sheet.
Bake the meringue for 1 hour. After the baking is done, leave the cookies in the oven so they can dry out completely.
As soon as they are cooled, transfer the meringue cookies into an airtight container.
Serve and enjoy.
