Espresso Meringue
Made these meringues few times already , so easy yet so yummy . Most of the time i only have 2-3 pieces of them just because they’re sweet , i guess that’s why it’s called meringue !! I love this kind though because it has espresso in there , i used instant espresso , and since i loved mocha / coffee stuff .. this becomes my preference compared to regular meringue which nothing but sweet .
