Spooky Halloween treats | Jack-o-lantern meringue cookies recipe

Since Halloween is just around the corner, for today's video recipe we are making jack o lantern meringue cookies! These spooky meringues cookies, sometimes called kisses are wonderfully crisp, light and airy, with the perfect amount of sweetness! These easy jack-o-lantern meringue cookies are the perfect make ahead Halloween treats and also make the perfect decorations for Halloween cakes and cupcakes!

Halloween Meringue cookies (kisses) recipe
Ingredients:
3 large room temperature egg whites
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
2/3 cup granulated white sugar
Food colouring (orange, brown and black)

Directions:
Preheat your oven to 165F/75C. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the balloon whisk attachment beat the egg whites on medium speed for about a minute, or until they are nice and foamy. Add cream of tartar and continue beating for another minute or until well incorporated. Begin adding the sugar 1/2 tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition. The process of adding and mixing in the sugar will take around 5 minutes. Once all of the sugar has been added, scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue mixing on medium speed for another minute or until all of the sugar is dissolved and you have a nice smooth glossy meringue with a nice stiff peak. Separate 1/2 cup of meringue into a small bowl and colour it with brown food colouring. Use this meringue for the jack-o-lantern stems. Transfer it into a piping bag fitted with a # 18 star tip (or any small round or star shaped tip). Colour the remaining meringue with orange food colouring and transfer to a bag fitted with a # 4B or any large open star tip. Attach a piece of parchment to a cookie sheet or baking pan using a small amount of meringue. To pipe the pumpkin shapes hold your tip just above the parchment paper. Apply pressure, pull up, release pressure and then sharply pull away to form each of the pumpkin shapes. Using decorating scissors, kitchen scissors, a scribe, skewer or tooth pick, remove the points from each of the pumpkin tops. Using the brown meringue pipe a small stem on the top of each pumpkin. Colour the remaining brown meringue with some black food colouring and using a cookie scribe, skewer or toothpick paint jack-o-lantern faces onto each of the meringue cookies. Bake for approximately 90 minutes. Allow to cool (they aren't very hot) and then store in an airtight container!

4 Easy Halloween Cupcake Ideas for Kids & Beginners

In this spooky cupcake tutorial, cake decorator extraordinaire, Krystle, shows how to make four different simple, kid friendly, cupcake designs for Halloween: dirt and worms cupcakes, spider web cupcakes, brain and guts cupcakes, and a cute marshmallow fondant jack-o-lantern pumpkin cutout for a cupcake.

These cupcakes ideas are a perfect craft project for kids and parents who want to make some delicious, spooky desserts without first getting a masters degree in pastry arts –unlike Krystle, who actually does have a masters degree in art. We hope you try these making these beginner friendly halloween cupcakes for yourself!

For this demonstration we used our famous Italian Meringue Buttercream, though any buttercream might do just as well (this one is just the most tasty). You can learn how to make that by following along with our video here:

We also utilize our marshmallow fondant, which we will show you how to make in an upcoming video (which should be loaded in the next week or two –Remind us in the comments if we forget to link it here!)
