Last Oscar Dinner post - our treat for dessert. These were my first ever gluten-free baking success last year, and have been approved by both my g-f experts Aoife & Jill. They taste like marshmallows, are made of six easy ingredients, and best of all, only use one bowl! This weekend I also hit sugar on the elimination schedule (all the naughty things are last - sugar, red meat, caffeine, alcohol) so I got to eat some too :o)
Chocolate Chip Meringues
