Beer Meringue Cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 3 large egg whites room temperature
  • pinch salt
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Barleywine beer or Belgian ale

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 200°F at least 30 minutes prior to baking. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the egg whites and salt to a stand mixer. Beat on medium-high speed until light and frothy, about 1 minute. While the mixer is running, gradually add the granulated sugar about 2 tablespoons at a time, beating for 2 minutes between each addition. Beat until firm peaks form, about 2 additional minutes.
  • Add powdered sugar and beer, beat until peaks return.
  • Spoon meringue into a pastry bag fitted with a ½ inch tip. Pipe 1-inch rounds onto prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake meringues until dry, about 2 hours. Let cool completely, about 1 hour.
