Peppermint Meringue Cookies
If there are eggs and sugar in the pantry, meringue cookies are a go-to dessert option. They don't require any advanced cooking or baking steps, are easy to make with only a few ingredients, and yet are still so visually impressive and unique.
These peppermint-flavored meringue cookies are rippled with red food coloring giving them a festive touch — they're like candy canes in meringue form!
Good to know: Make sure to purchase peppermint extract as opposed to oil-based flavoring. If the flavoring is oil-based, the egg whites will not whip up well. Get the recipe here.
