These Chocolate Chip Meringue Cookies are the perfect blend of crispy, chewy, and chocolatey. Unlike traditional meringues, these have chocolate chips folded in for pockets of richness that contrast beautifully with the light, airy cookie base.

Kitchen Tips

  • Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature for maximum volume. Cold whites don’t whip as well.
  • Use a clean, dry bowl and whisk - even a drop of fat will prevent the whites from whipping.
  • Add cream of tartar to stabilize the meringue. This prevents weeping and gives a smoother texture.
  • Bake on parchment paper or a silicone mat for even browning. The grocery bag trick works but can be inconsistent.
  • Let cookies cool completely on the pan before removing - they’ll crisp up as they cool.

Variations

  • White chocolate: Swap semi-sweet chips for white chocolate chips for a sweeter treat.
  • Peppermint: Add ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract to the meringue and use peppermint chips.
  • Macadamia nut: Replace chocolate chips with macadamia nuts for a Hawaiian-style meringue.
