1/4tspCream of Tartar
2/3cuppowdered Erythritol
20dropsVanilla flavored Stevia
1pack Sugar Free Green Jellototally optional

Electric Whisk
Metal Bowl
Cookie Sheet
Parchment paper
Silpat

Large round tip
Instructions
First, leave the eggs out for about 20 minutes or until they are at room temperature. If you need your eggs faster just set them in a bowl of super hot water for about 3 minutes and they should warm right up.
Next, line a cookie sheet with Parchment paper or a silpat.
It is especially relevant to make sure that your metal or glass bowl is extremely clean, this will help your Keto Meringue Cookies fluff up and stay firm.
Next, crack and separate the eggs into separate bowls. Place the egg whites inside the metal bowl and set the yolks aside for later.
Using an electric mixer whisk the eggs whites until frothy.
Next, add the Vinegar and cream of tartar. Whisk until the egg whites form stiff peaks. You should be able to turn the bowl upside down without any Meringue falling out of the bowl. This could take a few minutes.
Add the stevia to the egg whites and beat again for 10 seconds.
Next, slowly add the powdered Erythritol while beating the eggs.
Add the Green Jello or alternately greed food coloring slowly to the egg white mixture.
Scoop the egg white mixture into a piping bag with a wide tip or a zip-lock baggie with the tip cut off.
Pipe the egg white mixture into Ghost Shapes. I made a tiny circle and then piled the body. This makes about 20 or so Ghosts.
Place the cookie sheet in the oven at 200 degrees for about 80-90 minutes or until the Keto Meringue Cookies are crispy on the outside and come easily off of the paper. Take the Keto Meringue Cookies out of the oven and place on the counter until cool.
Using a fine tip paintbrush and black food coloring paint scary slimer faces on your keto meringue cookies.
Serve with Keto Lime Curd and wow your kids on Halloween without eating any sugar!
