I'm allergic to mint, so I substituted peppermint extract instead. The meringues still turned out great.

I'm impressed with how well these meringues held up. I made them a few days ago and they're still as good as the day I made them.

These meringues are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my meringues turned out flat. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
