Equipment

Ingredients

3 large egg whites save the yolks for another use or discard them
⅛ teaspoons salt
3 ½ tablespoons desired flavor of Jello gelatin
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoons white vinegar
Sprinkles or mini chocolate chips optional

Instructions

Preheat oven to 250°F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
Beat the egg whites with the salt until frothy in a large bowl.
Add the Jello and sugar. Beat until stiff peaks form. Next, add the vinegar and mix gently. If you are adding mini chocolate chips, gently stir them in.
Spoon or pipe the egg mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Top with sprinkles, if desired.
Bake for 30 minutes. DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR. Turn the oven off and allow the meringues to remain in the oven for an additional 20-30 minutes.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely.
