COCOANUT MERINGUES

Place meringue mixture (page [150]) in a pastry-bag with plain tube of one-half inch opening, and press it through on to paper in pieces about three inches long. Cut the meringue from the tube to give clean ends. Sprinkle the tops with as much grated cocoanut as will adhere. Desiccated cocoanut can be used. Place in a moderate oven to color it lightly, then remove to the hot shelf of the range to dry.

These meringues are also pretty if pressed through a star-tube into rings.
