Something Delicious ...



We've been so good getting through Monday, we deserve a sweet treat!
Here's something perfect for the weather today.


Effortless Almond Coconut Ice Cream SandwichesIngredients (SERVES 6)

1/2 cup- icing sugar
1/4 cup- ground blanched almonds
4- egg whites
1/2 tsp- cream of tartar
2 tbsp- granulated sugar
2 cups- coconut ice cream

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 200F. In a bowl, combine icing sugar and almonds.
2. Using an electric mixer on low speed, beat egg whites until frothy, about 1 minute. Add cream of tartar, set mixer’s speed to high and beat until soft peaks form. Add sugar and beat on medium low until whites are glossy, about 1 minute. Gently fold icing sugar and almonds into egg whites.
3. On a large, parchment paper-lined sheet pan trace a 3-inch round cookie cutter 12 times. Spoon meringue inside each circle and smooth tops to 1/2-inch thickness.
4. Bake for 90 minutes. They should be firm and dry to the touch. Turn off oven and leave meringues inside with door ajar to cool for another hour.
5. Sandwich 1/3 cup ice cream between two meringues and serve.

Wish suggests making them a little chewier so they don't fall apart when you eat them

Enjoy !
