Ingredients
4 large egg whites
6tbsp Splenda granulated sweetener
¼tsp cream of tartar
⅛tsp salt
¼tsp vanilla extract
Green, blue and pink gel food colouring
White writing icing
25g pack Cake Décor Edible Eyes
Method
1
Preheat the oven to 120C/100C Fan/Gas ½. Line 2 baking trays with nonstick baking paper.
2
Put the egg whites in a bowl with the sweetener, cream of tartar, salt and vanilla extract, and whisk with an electric mixer until it forms glossy peaks.
3
Divide the meringue mixture between 3 bowls and, using a cocktail stick, swirl drops of different colours of the gel food colouring through each.
4
Using a large spoon, put 12 blobs of the meringue mix onto the baking trays. Use a fork to create monster spikes in the mixture.
5
Bake in the oven for 1 hr 30 mins until the outside is set and they can be gently lifted off the paper. Allow to cool.
6
Use white writing icing to attach a few eyeballs to each monster, varying the number of eyes on each one to give them different expressions.
