Brown Sugar Meringues image

This twist on the classic meringue recipe calls for almonds and brown sugar, producing a golden-brown cookie that is crunchy on the outside, deliciously chewy on the inside.

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. Line two 11-by-17-inch baking sheets with parchment; set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine egg whites and sugar. Place bowl over a pan of simmering water. Whisk until sugar dissolves and mixture is warm, 3 minutes.
  • Transfer the bowl to the mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high, whip mixture until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5 minutes. Add vanilla, and mix to combine. Remove bowl from mixer, and fold in the toasted almonds.
  • Place 1/3-cup ovals of meringue on prepared baking sheets, about 6 per sheet. Bake 1 hour. Turn off heat; dry meringues in oven overnight. Store between layers of parchment in an airtight container in a cool, dry place up to 3 days.

I've made meringues before, but these are by far the best! The brown sugar adds a wonderful flavor and they're so light and fluffy.

These meringues were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I followed the recipe exactly and my meringues came out flat. I'm not sure what went wrong.
