Cooking Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 300°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment or wax paper.

 

2. With an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and salt on high speed until soft peaks form.

 

3. Continue mixing on high speed while adding 1/2 cup of the sugar. Add the remaining sugar by the tablespoonful. Beat for another 1-2 minutes, until the mixture is stiff and shiny.

 

4. Drop by the spoonful onto the cookie sheets. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon. Decorate with colored sugars.

 

5. Bake until pale golden, about 30 minutes.

 

Let cool.
