MERINGUE SANTA HATS
My grandkids love it when I make meringues shaped like Santa hats. If they are here, they love to help-they like to put red glitter on the meringue and take such pride in knowing they have helped Grandma.-Bonnie Hawkins, Elkhorn, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Place egg whites in a small bowl; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes., Preheat oven to 250°. Add cream of tartar and vanilla to egg whites; beat on medium speed until foamy. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high after each addition until sugar is dissolved. Continue beating until stiff glossy peaks form., Cut a small hole in the tip of a pastry bag or in a corner of a food-safe plastic bag; insert a #8 round tip. Fill bag with one-fourth of the meringue; set aside. Prepare a second piping bag, using a #12 round tip; fill with remaining meringue., Using bag with the #12 tip, pipe 36 Santa hat triangles (2 in. tall) onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle with red sugar. Use first bag to pipe white trim and pompoms on hats., Bake 40-45 minutes or until firm to the touch. Turn off oven (do not open oven door); leave meringues in oven 1 hour., Remove hats from paper. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
