Raspberry Meringue Cookies
Hubby absolutely loved the Peppermint Chocolate Meringue cookies I made for my 12 Days of Cookies in December. We were talking about what other flavors of meringues I could make. He suggested raspberry dipped in chocolate. We both agreed that I had to make these that night. I searched the internet and came upon this recipe on Cooks.com. I decided to omit the chocolate chips and instead dip the meringues in chocolate after baking them.
Raspberry Meringue cookies – make 9 dozen3 egg whites
1/8 tsp. salt
3 1/2 tbsp. raspberry Jello (1 3 oz pkg)
3/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. vinegar
1 c. miniature chocolate chips – I omitted
Dark chocolate + vegetable oil for dipping
Beat egg whites and salt until foamy.
Add Jello and sugar gradually; beat until stiff peaks form and sugar is dissolved.
Mix in vinegar; fold in chocolate chips.
Drop from teaspoon onto ungreased cookie sheets covered with brown paper bag (I piped these into kisses onto my Silpat). Bake at 250 degrees for 25 minutes.
Turn off oven; leave cookies in oven 20 minutes longer. Let stand 5 minutes and remove.
These are so adorable! A friend once made me margarita cupcakes for a birthday, but I love the sound of all the coconut.
I love this cupcakes week!!!!! And even Pina-colada cupcakes…..ciao, Flavia
these look incredible! I am LOVING cupcake week!
These make me crave a warm summer day.
This sounds like a fun, summery cupcake recipe! Love it!
Mmm these look awesome! But where’s the rum?
Tell me about it! I’m not excited about the rain/snow we’re supposed to get tonight and tomorrow.
Good point! They have the flavors of a pina colada without the alcohol. If you wanted to add some rum, I’d throw it into the filling.
I’d like one of these cupcakes along with a pina colada on the beach!
I’ve really been into “booze” cupcake lately and yours looks fantastic! Perfect for a luau or a summer pool party!
Those are truly beautiful cupcakes! I love Pina Coladas and I love cupcakes so…
These are so beautiful! Eating one of these would bring me back to Hawaii 🙂
Ooohhh Hawaii sounds awesome right about now. I’ve never been.
oh my gosh, those look adorable, and i love the flavor combo, too!!
Very nice! May I ask how you set the background for your cupcake pics? The solid colors really bring attention to the cupcakes themselves.
For the majority of my cupcakes, I use a piece 12×12 scrap-booking paper for my backgrounds. I have a big stack of a variety of colors and patterns.
Thank you 🙂 .
I love the garnishes on the top, they looke exactly like little poolside drinks. I have been wanting to try a cocktail-like cake since I went to “cupcake happy hour” at Kickass Cupcakes in Davis Square. Have you ever been there? Because if you haven’t you must go and try their mojito!
I have been to Kickass before during the Cupcake Crawl I hosted a couple years ago. In fact, we even tasted the mojito cupcake while we were there.
Such creative finishing touches to a perfectly delightful cupcake.
