Ingredients
- 2 Egg whites room temperature
- ¼ tsp Cream of tartar
- ½ cup Granulated sugar
- ½ cup White chocolate chips
- ½ cup Multicolored nonpareil sprinkles
Instructions
- Gather your ingredients. Preheat oven to 200 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Using an electric mixer, beat together egg whites and cream of tartar on low speed.
- Slowly add granulated sugar and increase mixer to its highest speed. Continue to mix, for about 10 minutes, until the mixture turns white and forms semi-stiff peaks.
- Scoop the egg and sugar mixture into a piping bag with Wilton tip #21 attached. Pipe out meringue mounds on the lined baking sheet, about 1 ½ inches in diameter and 1 inch in height. Bake for 2 hours. Once 2 hours is up, turn off the heat but keep the meringue cookies in the oven for 40 minutes.
- Remove the pan of meringue cookies and allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Place white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second intervals, mixing between each interval, until the chips are completed melted.
- Dip the bottom of each meringue cookie into the melted chocolate, then dip into the sprinkles.
- Refrigerate and allow to set for at least 20 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
