These are the tips to get the perfect meringue cookies:
1, Use clean bowl and whisk without any water drop.
2, Use fresh egg whites.
3, Do not reduce the amount of sugar. You want to use twice as much sugar as the egg whites.
4, Do not overmix or it will separate.
5, Instead of using high heat and a short baking time, use low heat and a longer baking time. You want to dry out the cookies.
6, Pipe out small portions. In this way they can dry out perfectly. If the inside is still moist, it can become sticky and chewy.
7, Keep them in a air-tight container.
