How to Make Almond Meringue Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a perfectly clean, grease-free bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until frothy. Add 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar and beat at high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. Beat in 1 teaspoon almond extract. Gradually add 1 cup Splenda, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until fully incorporated and the meringue is thick and glossy.
  5. Gently fold in 1/2 cup slivered almonds.
  6. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 30 minutes in the center of the oven. Turn off the oven, leave the cookies undisturbed inside the oven for another 30 minutes with the door closed.
  8. Remove from oven and let cool completely on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool further.
  9. Store in an airtight container.
