Basic White Meringues

Apologies that I am behind with my blogging again. Where does the time go? Anyway, last weekend, Adam and I went to a friend's 25th Wedding Anniversary party. Once again, it was a good opportunity to offer to bake, so I made these meringues, as well as the chocolatines and mokatines  - these will appear on the next post.
I used Mary's basic white meringue recipe, and piped the mini meringue shapes onto the baking parchment. It made 20, so I did two batches as I was planning to sandwich them together, and I didn't think 10 would be enough. As it turned out, one 11year old boy managed to eat 5, and no, it wasn't Ben!! They were very well received, and although dipping them in chocolate (my idea, not Mary's, well, actually something my mum used to do with her meringues) was rather a pain, and quite messy, it really did add to the taste and texture! They received a score of 9.0, and were demolished very quickly.
