Magic Meringues!

Magic meringues! What fun! :) My Mom and I did this with the little ones yesterday...it was so cool! We all had lots of fun and the recipe is very easy and simple.
It makes 20 to 30 and all you need is...
1 egg white
Food colouring (any colour you like will do!)
300g Icing sugar (confectioners' sugar)

^ That's all!

Method:
1. Break up the egg white with a fork and add the food colouring, any colour, but we used pink this time, then stir in enough icing sugar to make a thick paste and kneed the dough until it is smooth and even.

^ Here Grace is holding some of the dough we made in a bowl. This is only a little bit compared to how much it really makes! :)

2. Line your turntable with a paper towel. Roll balls the size of a marble or bigger and place them well spaced on the turntable. 

^Here Grace is again, with the little balls the size of marbles on a paper towel. You can only put 3 to 4 on at a time.(I suggest you use a plate underneath the paper towel, because without it the meringues may burn!)

3. Cook on 100 percent power for 1 to 1½ minutes, depending on the size. Watch in amazement as the balls puff out to make crisp meringues. Serve sandwiched with cream to improve, and don't forget the most important part; have fun!

^ These are the meringues after they have been microwaved - such a fantastic recipe!

Best wishes,
