Mini Meringue Nests

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 250°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with foil; spray foil with no stick cooking spray.
2. 2
   Beat egg whites in a clean medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Add sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, beating until it dissolves and meringue is stiff and glossy. Add coloring and beat to combine.
3. 3
   Spoon level tablespoonfuls of mixture onto prepared pans to form 24 nests.
4. 4
   Bake for 30 mins. Cool in turned-off oven, with the door ajar to let the nests fully dry out.
5. 5
   Spoon rounded teaspoons of whipped cream into each nest. Arrange nests on toasted coconut on a serving tray. Place mini Easter eggs in nests.
