Chocolate Meringue KissesIngredients:4 egg whites 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 cup Splenda 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa Directions: Preheat oven to 225-degrees. Put baking parchment on a cookie sheet. Beat egg whites until foamy. Add vanilla extract a few drops at a time and cream of tartar. Beat until meringue starts to look creamy and forms soft peaks. Add in Splenda a little at a time. Add in cocoa a little at a time. Put meringue on parchment paper cookie sheet by spoonfuls. (You can use a pastry bag and pipe them into cones like Hershey kisses, or flower shapes.) Bake at 225-degrees for one hour. Turn off oven, open oven door a crack, and allow to cool five to ten minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool away from drafts. Remove from parchment paper when cool. Carb count for total recipe: 28.7g. Number of cookies varies depending on size. Variation: You could also do these with daVinci flavored syrups and a little food coloring if desired. Then sprinkle a little granulated Splenda on the top for that sugar "sparkle." Note: If you make smaller meringues, don't bake them quite as long, or they will be overdry and fracture easily.
