raspberry chocolate chip meringue kisses
I made these and put in party favors bags for a Valentine's Day luncheon a few years ago, then forgot all about the recipe until just today. You could use a piping bag with a decorative tip to make them prettier - but I just dropped them by teaspoons full onto the parchment paper. They weren't so pretty, but nobody complained. You could change up the Jell-O flavors and colors to make them Lime green on St. Pat's Day, or Lemon yellow for Easter. NOTE: Cook Time does not include the 1 hour the kisses need to set up in the oven after baking.
