This is a great meringue shell recipe from Betty Crocker cooking.
Ingredients
6 egg whites (3/4 c)
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice or vinegar
Directions
To the egg whites, gradually beat in the sugar and beat until very stiff and glossy.
Spread on a paper lined cookie sheet or make into rounds. Bake @ 275 (very slow oven), 60 minutes for layers, 40 minutes for shells.
Remove to cooling rack immediately.
If these are wrapped in plastic wrap, then foil, you
can freeze then up to a month. To thaw remove foil wrapping and let stand at room temperature for about 3 hours.
