This Toffee and Chocolate Meringues recipe is gluten and nut free, depending on the brand of toffee bits that you use. They are light, low in fat, and delightfully airy and delicious.
These cookies came together really fast. You start by whipping some egg whites until they form stiff peaks, slowly incorporating the sugar, and then adding the vanilla. Once that is added and you have stiff, shiny egg whites, you gently mix in the chips and the toffee. Easy Easy!
Spoon small portions onto a parchment lined baking sheet.
Place sheet into a preheated 350 degree oven, and then TURN THE OVEN OFF. Go to bed, and when you wake up your meringues will be perfect! Don’t peek during the night. The oven needs to stay shut.
Remove from the sheet and store in an airtight container or baggie.
