You will need:

4 egg whites, room temperature

1 cup sugar

3 Tablespoons Jello dry powder – any flavor

dash of salt

1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

#1M piping tip (click here to purchase on Amazon – affliliate)

Disposable piping bags

Directions for Easy Jello Meringue Cookies:

First, preheat oven to 225 degrees Fahrenheit

Next, using a hand or stand mixer with whisk attachment, beat egg whites on medium speed, then, add in cream of tartar and salt. Continue beating until soft peaks form.

Then, gradually, add in sugar and gelatin powder ( about 1 tablespoons at a time) and continue beating until stiff peaks form. Be sure to add the sugar in slowly or your meringue will deflate. Mix until the egg whites are nice and glossy

Now, using a 1M piping tip, pipe  the meringues in a rosette on top a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 1 hour. Then, turn off oven and let the meringues sit in the oven for at least 1 hour, DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR!

Turn off oven and leave cookies in oven at least an hour after the oven has been turned off. They should be nice and dry

These easy Jello meringue cookies are the best! So colorful and full of flavor, if you are making a citrus cookie flavor like orange, lemon or lime, you can even fold in about 1 teaspoon of fresh zest in the mixture before piping if desired.
