These Chocolate and Hazelnut Meringues Are Nuts

But they taste like cookies and cream, and for what it's worth, they can also be made without nuts.

Time to whip out your whisk, whip up some egg whites, and make bite-sized meringues that are the perfect party food.

They're sweet, crunchy, and creamy all at once. This recipe, from two-time James Beard "Outstanding Pastry Chef" nominee Michelle Gayer of Chicago's Salty Tart is also gluten-free and can easily be made sans nuts.

RECIPE: Chocolate and Hazelnut Meringues

Think of them as cookies-and-cream-flavored air. That's the spirit.
