Chocolate Meringue Smooches
Recipe courtesy Paula Deen

Ingredients
1 cup confectioners' sugar
3 egg whites, stiffly beaten
1/2 cup crushed saltine crackers
1/2 cup walnuts or pecans, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (6-ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips


Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Using a large bowl, fold the confectioners' sugar a little at a time into the stiffly beaten egg
whites. Add the crackers, nuts, and vanilla, and fold in gently. Melt the chocolate over a double
boiler and allow to cool slightly. Fold the melted chocolate into the egg white mixture. Using a
greased cookie sheet, drop the mixture by rounded half teaspoonfuls. Place in the oven and bake for
12 minutes. Remove cookies from oven and repeat until batter has been used up.
