MARTHA STEWART'S 1996 HOLIDA
4lgEgg whites; at room
  Temperature
1cSugar
1pnCream of tartar
1/2tsVanilla extract

Fill medium saucepan one-quarter full with water. Set saucepan over medium heat, and bring water to simmer. Combine egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar in heatproof bowl of electric mixer, and place over saucepan. Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved and whites are warm to touch, 3 to 3-1/2 minutes. Test by rubbing between your fingers. Transfer bowl to electric mixer, and whip, starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 10 minutes. Add vanilla, and mix until combined. Place meringue in large pastry bag filled with large star tip. Heat oven to 200 F. Trace six 3"-circles on parchment; place, penciled side down, on 12"-by-18" baking sheet. Pipe meringue in circular motion, forming pyramid-like kiss shape. Place baking sheets in oven, and bake about 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 175 F, and bake 60 to 90 minutes more until meringue is dry and crisp, but still white.
