If you're looking for a sweet and impressive dessert to wow your guests, look no further than these Chocolate Chip Meringue Surprises. These meringue cookies are light and airy on the inside and crunchy on the outside, with a delicate texture that melts in your mouth. The addition of chocolate chips adds a burst of flavor and a bit of texture to every bite.

Instructions

1.	Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
2.	Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3.	In a large bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar on high speed until stiff peaks form. Gradually add in the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat until the mixture is glossy and holds stiff peaks.
4.	Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula.
5.	Use a piping bag or a spoon to drop the meringue mixture onto the lined baking sheet, forming small mounds about the size of a golf ball.
6.	Bake for 1 hour or until the meringues are firm to the touch and can be lifted easily off the parchment paper without sticking.
7.	Turn off the oven and leave the meringues inside for another hour to dry out further before serving.

PROS

These Chocolate Chip Meringue Surprises are crunchy, chewy, and loaded with chocolatey goodness, making them a delicious and fun dessert for any occasion.
They are also gluten-free, dairy-free, and relatively low in calories and fat compared to other desserts.

CONS

Meringues can be tricky to make and require a bit of skill and patience to get just right.
It’s important to avoid overbeating the egg whites, as this can cause the meringue to collapse or crack.
They are also high in sugar, so should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

While meringues are not the healthiest dessert out there, they are a better option than many other sugar-laden treats. They are naturally gluten-free and low in fat, and the egg whites in this recipe provide some protein. They are also a good source of quick energy that can help satisfy your sweet tooth without crashing your blood sugar levels.
