Meringue Bites
Another way is to make them bite sized and OMIT the chips.
They are more like candy pieces that you can pop into your mouth.
I like them this way best.
I like to use food coloring and make them different colors.
Happy eating 🍪

ReplyDeleteAre they crispy?
ReplyDeleteNot really cripsy but they set.
DeleteOh mjammie. It are schuimkoekjes!
ReplyDeleteWhere does the name come from?
ReplyDeleteThey are called forgotten because you put them in the oven and then forget about them. : )
DeleteSo interesting. I'll have to try this magical cookie!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. In my langiages it schuimpjes. That is a difficult name for you, I think. They resemble pavlovas. In a pavlova, cornstarch is added to make the inside softer.
