Peppermint Meringues

December 20, 2009 by Joy the Baker 36 Comments

Peppermint Pops 

What are you up to on this fine Sunday?

Holiday shopping?  Holiday partying?  Trying to find a pair of pantyhose without a run in them?  Yea… me too.

I thought I’d pop in and remind you of these little peppermint gems.  They’re light.  They’re beautiful and festive.  You can put them in the oven and just about forget about them while they bake…. and yes, they look a little bit like Colgate toothpaste.  

Peppermint Meringues.  Because you can.  Because you should.

    These peppermint meringues look absolutely adorable! I never would’ve thought it looked like toothpaste until you mentioned it, haha! What a great dessert… which also gives you good breath too!
