Servings

Preheat your oven to 200°F (95°C). Lightly butter and flour a baking sheet to prevent sticking.
Using an electric mixer in a glass or metal bowl, whip the egg whites until they become foamy. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to whip at medium speed. Once the mixture is stiff, glossy, and resembles satin, stop mixing. Transfer the meringue to a large pastry bag fitted with a large round or star tip.
Place the meringues in the preheated oven. Prop the oven door slightly open by inserting a wooden spoon handle to allow moisture to escape.
Bake the meringues until they are dry and easily lift off the baking sheet, approximately 3 hours. Let the meringues cool completely before storing them in an airtight container at room temperature.
