The recipe Chocolate Meringue Kisses is ready in approximately 45 minutes and is definitely Head to the store and pick up confectioners' sugar, sugar, egg whites, and a few other things to make it today.
Instructions
Preheat oven to 225F. Line 2 large rimmed cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Place egg whites in a clean dry bowl and beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until foamy.
Add cream of tartar, increase speed to high and whip until mixture forms soft peaks. Gradually add granulated sugar and continue beating until whites are stiff and shiny.
In a separate bowl, sift confectioners' sugar with cocoa to blend. Working in thirds, sprinkle cocoa mixture over egg whites and gently fold in until thoroughly incorporated.
Transfer to a large ziplock bag. Seal bag, pinching out excess air. Snip off a small piece of one bottom corner of bag. Pipe out meringues through hole onto cookie sheets, forming small "kisses," about 2 inches in diameter.
Bake for 1 hour, until meringues are firm and dry. Turn oven off and let meringues sit in oven for 15 minutes.
Let meringues cool on sheets on wire racks, then gently peel kisses off parchment paper. Store at room temperature in an airtight container.
Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose
Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sparkling rosé are my top picks for Mexican. Acidic white wines like riesling or low-tannin reds like pinot noir can work well with Mexican dishes. Sparkling rosé is a safe pairing too. One wine you could try is Alexana Revana Vineyard Pinot Noir. It has 4.7 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 42 dollars.

Bright, forward aromas of black cherry, dried herbal andfloral notes are lifted by molasses and anise blossom. Massiveblack cherry flavors are decadent and integrate well with spice,cola and cocoa tones. The texture is lush and rich, finishing withround soft tannins that provide perfect structure for cellaring.
