Cashew Meringues

me December 22, 2005 Adventures in the Kitchen, Desserts

My adaptation of an allrecipes.com recipe that didn’t have cashews. DH likes these too. We’re on a roll here!

INGREDIENTS:
3 egg whites
1 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cups ground cashews

DIRECTIONS:
1. Beat egg whites until foamy, then add sugar gradually still beating until stiff peaks form. Fold in cashews.
2. Drop by heaping spoonfulls (spoonsfull?) onto baking sheet; bake at 275-300 for about 20-30 minutes. Let cook on sheet 3-5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
