📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 250 ̊. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Combine the egg whites, cream of tartar, peppermint extract and salt in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed until foamy, about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Increase the speed to medium high and beat until thick and opaque, about 1 more minute. Gradually add the powdered sugar, about 1/4 cup at a time, and beat until stiff shiny peaks form, 8 to ⏱️ 10 minutes.
