Forgotten Mint Meringue Surprises

• 2 egg whites
• 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
• 1/4 teaspoon green food coloring
• 2/3 cup white sugar
• 30 milk chocolate candy kisses (such as Hershey's Kisses(R))

1. Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. Combine egg whites, cream of tartar, salt, vanilla extract, peppermint extract, and green food coloring in a large bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat until soft peaks form.
3. Beat sugar into egg whites one tablespoon at a time. Continue to beat until stiff peaks form, and mixture is glossy and very smooth, 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Drop the meringue by half teaspoons onto prepared cookie sheet; top with chocolate kisses. Spoon a scant teaspoon of meringue over chocolate, and smooth to cover completely.
5. Place cookies in the preheated oven; turn oven off. Leave meringues in oven overnight, or until oven has cooled completely.
