Minty Meringue Drops

2 egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
3/4 cup sugar
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 to 6 drops green food coloring, optional
1 package (10 ounces) mint chocolate chips

Lightly grease baking sheets or line with parchment paper; set aside. In a
large mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar, beating
until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until
stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla and food coloring if desired. Fold in the
chocolate chips. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto prepared
baking sheets. Bake at 250° for 30-35 minutes or until dry to the touch.
Remove to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container.

Yield: about 2-1/2 dozen.
