Meringues
Meringues always consist of the same basic ingredients, namely beaten egg whites and sugar. By mixing both on a high setting, you get a nice shiny white foam. Making meringues is not difficult, you just need to know the tricks to make them. It is important not to add any egg yolk to your egg white. A little bit of egg yolk with your egg white can cause your meringue not to be stiff. Also make sure that all your materials are grease-free. Do this by cleaning your whisk and bowl with, for example, a slice of lemon. This will ensure that everything is free of grease so that the egg white can be whipped until stiff. With the recipe below, you can easily make basic meringues. Take a look and see how to make them!
Chocolate meringues
Fond of chocolate? Then try these delicious chocolate meringues! The only thing that is different from the basic meringues, is that with the chocolate meringues, cocoa is added to the foam. This gives you brown meringues with a delicious chocolate flavour. Then you can give the meringues even more of a chocolate flavour by sprinkling them with, for example, sprinkles or dark chocolate rocks from FunCakes. These meringues are soft and chewy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. This is going to be a treat! Are you crazy about chocolate and looking for more delicious recipes with chocolate?
