These crunchy dainties are great with coffee or with cream for dessert. And they're low fat! Substitute 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules or 1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa for the vanilla if you like. Coffee kisses are great sandwiched together with melted white or dark chocolate. Spooned vanilla ones are good with cream and chocolate ones are good as finger biscuits with coffee.
2 egg whites
½ cup superfine sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cantuccini
Dessert
Directions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In large bowl beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually beat in sugar until a little of the mixture between your thumb and forefinger feels smooth not gritty. Stir in vanilla. Pipe or spoon small portions onto baking tray and bake 35 minutes or until dry but not brown. Turn off oven and leave meringues to cool inside.
