Ingredients - Makes 60 Meringue cookies
3 large egg whites
3/4 cup sugar (the finer the better, but not powdered)
1/2 tsp peppermint extract
6 blocks Hershey Special Dark Chocolate (Giant Bar)
-And piping back and large star tip

Pre-heat Oven to 175 Cover 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper

1) With whisk attachment, use electric mixer to beat eggs until foamy. Add in a few drops of green food coloring at this part.
2) While mixing on medium speed, SLOWLY add sugar. The egg white should thicken, and then make a stiff peak.

3)Fold in peppermint extract with spatula (about 6 times, don't over mix or it will go flat)
4) Fill up piping bag, and pipe onto cookie sheet, should be between a quarter size and 50 cent piece.


Bake for 2 hours or until they are firm and not sticky. When finished let cool completely.

Melt the chocolate, and drizzle over cookies.
