Meringue Mushrooms

For some reason...I wanted to try making meringue. Not that I find it exceptionally tasty, but just to try and make it. I searched "meringue" on allrecipes.com and found this recipe. I didn't have pastry bags or any kind of decorating tips because I'm not a cake decorator. I ended up going to walmart and buying set of 2 tips (1 circle tip and 1 flowery/starry tip) and a ziploc bag.
It was kinda difficult to "form" the mushroom caps and stems. After baking, I ended up cutting the tips of the stems to get a flat surface to attach to the mushroom cap.

Don't they look realistic???







They were baked as caps and stems separately.


Then I attached the two parts together with melted chocolate.

    Hi Debbie - this is Dave Walter and his daughter, Emily. These were delicious, and Emily thinks they look really cool. We're gonna try making them ourselves!
