How to Make Mint Chocolate Meringues

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Beat 4 large egg whites in a clean, grease-free bowl with an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup of granulated sugar, beating continuously until stiff and glossy meringue forms.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 5-10 drops of green food coloring. Beat until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray. Pipe or spoon meringue mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each meringue.

  8. Leave the meringues undisturbed in the oven overnight (at least 8 hours) or for a minimum of 5 hours to dry completely.
  9. Carefully remove the meringues from the oven and let them cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
