Strawberry Meringue Cookies

Strawberry Meringues are low fat and you could make them low sugar by reducing the amount of sugar.  However, these are tasty just the way they are.

Strawberry Meringues
3/4 cup egg whites (from about 5 eggs)
pinch of salt (about 1/8 teaspoon)
1/4 cup strawberry gelatin
3/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Whisk egg whites, salt, gelatin and sugar in kitchenaid until sugar is mostly dissolved.  Increase speed to high and beat until no sugar granules can be felt when you rub a little between your fingers.  Remove bowl from stand mixer and, by hand, stir in vinegar, extract and cornstarch.  Scoop onto parchment lined cookie sheet and bake in 180 degree oven for 2 hours.  Do not open the doors and turn oven off.  Leave in the oven overnight or at least 8 hours.
