Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes about 1 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup whole almonds
6 large egg whites
1 1/2 cups packed light-brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place nuts in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet; toast until golden and aromatic, about 8 minutes. Shake the pan halfway through baking to make sure the nuts toast evenly. Remove from oven; cool. Reduce oven temperature to 200 degrees.

LEMON MERINGUE BARS RECIPE BY TASTY



Lemon Meringue Bars Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, salt, unsalted butter, large eggs, egg yolk, granulated sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, all-purpose flour, egg white, salt, granulated sugar

Provided by Alix Traeger

Categories     Desserts

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup powdered sugar
½ teaspoon salt
¾ cup unsalted butter, 1 1/2 sticks, cubed, room temperature
3 large eggs
1 egg yolk, reserve white for meringue
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 egg white
1 pinch salt
⅓ cup granulated sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325˚F (170˚C). Grease and line a 9-inch (23 cm) square baking dish with parchment paper and place on a baking sheet.
  • Make the crust: combine the flour, powdered sugar, salt, and butter in a medium bowl, and use your hands to mix until a crumbly dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough to the prepared pan, and use your hands to press it against the bottom and about 1 inch (2 cm) up the sides. Poke the bottom all over with a fork.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, until light golden brown.
  • While the crust is baking, make the lemon filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and egg yolk. Add the granulated sugar, lemon juice, zest, and a pinch of salt, and whisk to combine. Whisk in the flour until just combined.
  • When the crust is done baking, remove it from the oven. Pour the lemon filling over the crust and carefully return it to the oven for 25 minutes, until the filling no longer jiggles and the center is mostly set.
  • While the filling bakes, make the meringue: In a clean, dry medium bowl, use an electric hand mixer to beat the egg white until stiff peaks form. Add about half of the sugar, whip for 30 seconds, then add the rest of the sugar and whip until combined. Transfer the meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a large tip or zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
  • Pipe 9 evenly-spaced dollops of meringue on top of the lemon bars.
  • Return to the oven for 10-12 minutes, until the meringues are lightly browned.
  • Let cool completely, then refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
  • Slice into 9 bars. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
  • Enjoy!

BROWN SUGAR MERINGUES WITH GOOSEBERRY COMPOTE & CREAM



Brown sugar meringues with gooseberry compote & cream image

Crisp hazelnut meringues with whipped cream and gooseberry compote make the perfect gluten-free summer dessert

Provided by Jane Hornby

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

300ml pot double cream
4 large egg whites
squeeze of lemon juice
225g light muscovado sugar
50g toasted chopped hazelnut (or toast and chop your own)
400g gooseberry , topped and tailed
6 tbsp golden caster sugar
juice 1 lemon (minus the squeeze, above)

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment and heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. For the meringues, put the egg whites and lemon juice in a large clean bowl (metal or ceramic is best) and whisk with hand beaters until the whites stand in stiff peaks, but are not at all dry or fluffy around the edges.
  • Add 1 tbsp of the sugar and whisk again until the whites return to stiff. Repeat until all the sugar has been used and the meringue is thick and glossy. Sprinkle in the hazelnuts; don't stir.
  • Spoon 8 blobs of the meringue onto the lined baking sheet, aiming for something roughly egg- or rugby ball-shaped. As you push the meringue off the spoon, the hazelnut will ripple its way through the mixture. Make a small dip in the top of each meringue, ready to hold the cream and fruit later. Bake for 1¼ hrs or until pale golden and crisp. Leave to cool in the oven with the door ajar.
  • For the compote, gently heat everything together in a pan until the sugar dissolves, then bring to a simmer. Cover the pan and cook for 3 mins or until the fruit collapses but is still recognisable. Cool. Assemble meringues just before eating: whip the cream and use to top the meringues, then add spoonfuls of compote. Any leftover compote will keep in the fridge for a week or two.

YUMMIES, BARS, WITH BROWN SUGAR MERINGUE



YUMMIES, BARS, WITH BROWN SUGAR MERINGUE image

This recipe was given to me by Mom,and she got it from a friend in 1968; so it's withstood the TEST of TIME! They have a cooky base, chopped nuts of your choice, and a brown sugar meringue topping. They just MELT in your mouth, and are so yummy, they came by the name easily!

Provided by Beth M. @BakinTime

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

FIRST MIX FLOUR, BAKING POWDER AND SALT
1 3/4 cup(s) flour
1 teaspoon(s) baking powder
1 teaspoon(s) salt
IN A SEPARATE BOWL PLACE BUTTER, AND BEAT WITH GRANULATED SUGAR.
ADD EGG YOLKS AND WHOLE EGG, AND VANILLA AND MIX WELL.
1 stick(s) butter, softened
1 cup(s) granulated sugar
2 - egg yolks, reserve whites
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
1 - whole egg
MIX THE DRY INGREDIENTS INTO THE BUTTER MIXER. THIS WILL BE A VERY STIFF DOUGH, I USE A STAND MIXER.
IN A SEPARATE BOWL BEAT EGG WHITES UNTIL STIFF, AND MIX IN BROWN SUGAR
2 - egg whites
1 cup(s) light brown sugar
1 package(s) 8 oz. of chopped walnuts or pecans; optional

Steps:

  • Grease a 9 X 9 pan, or small rectangular pan; Preheat Oven to 350 degrees.
  • If you want to add chopped nuts, they can be placed in the egg white mixture or spread on top of the first layer, the cooky base.
  • Spread the cooky dough in the pan, top with the nuts if desired, and spread the egg white mixture over all.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. This does get brown, so you need to check it, and it can get a crackled top which is normal. If you under-bake it, the cooky layer is soggy, so let it get brown, but not burned on top.Cool and then cut into small bars or squares.
  • THIS RECIPE CAN EASILY BE DOUBLED, AND I MADE THEM IN A JELLY ROLL PAN WHICH HOLDS THE DOUBLED RECIPE. IT THEN CAN BE CUT INTO ABOUT 36 BARS.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect meringue, ensure the egg whites are at room temperature and contain no traces of yolk.
  • Beat the egg whites gradually, starting at low speed and increasing it as they begin to foam.
  • Add the sugar in small increments, allowing each addition to dissolve completely before adding more.
  • Continue beating until stiff peaks form, which means the meringue holds its shape when the whisk is lifted.
  • For a gooey center, reduce the baking time by a few minutes.
  • Store the Yum-Yum bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

The Yum-Yum bars, with their delectable combination of a chewy oatmeal base, a sweet and tangy filling, and a fluffy meringue topping, are a true delight for the senses.
