These little meringue Christmas trees are great for a Christmas party or to give as favours. They’re pretty quick and simple to make as long as you whip the egg whites enough to start with. When you think you’ve added enough green food colouring add some more. The colour fades in the oven A LOT. You could use these meringues as decoration on other Christmas bakes.They’d look great around a gingerbread house.
