Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 175 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; do not use a silicone liner.
- Sift the confectioners' sugar twice to remove any lumps. Divide the sifted sugar in half.
- Beat the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer or hand-held mixer on medium speed until frothy, then increase the speed to medium-high and beat to form soft peaks. With the motor running, gradually add half of the sifted confectioners' sugar; beat to form firm peaks. Add the peppermint extract and beat just to combine. Remove bowl from the mixer.
- Sift the remaining sugar (yes, one more time) into the egg white mixture. Gently fold it in to form a batter that can hold its shape.
- The cookies can be dropped by spoonful onto the baking sheet. Or, transfer the batter to a pastry bag or resealable plastic food storage bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe kisses that are about 1 1/2 inches wide and 1 inch high onto the parchment paper-lined baking sheets, spacing them at least 1/2 inch apart.
- Sprinkle the finely chopped or crushed candies evenly over the meringue kisses.
- Bake for about 3 hours, until dry and crisp. Turn off the oven; let the kisses remain in the oven for 1 hour to dry thoroughly before serving or storing.

LIZ'S PEPPERMINT KISSES.
You will love these for Christmas. My dad taught me this recipe, if I can do it (I have lousy hands...lol), you can do it. How did I get the sprinkles and dragées to stick? I used a thin coating of brown rice syrup that I painted on with a small brush (brown rice syrup is a liquid sweetener made from brown rice, that is just about half as sweet as sugar). Serving size really depends on how big or small you make them, I put 20 as an estimate. Have fun and enjoy!!!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 175.
- Place a small pan of water on the stove and heat till simmering. Place egg whites in a mixing bowl and pour in the sugar. Move the mixing bowl over to the simmering water, but make sure the bottom does not touch the water. Gently stir the sugar and egg whites together for 2 minutes until the eggs warm up.
- Using the whisk attachment, mix on high speed until you have firm peaks. Gently mix in peppermint extract until combined. Place a pastry bag fitted with a star tip into a large drinking glass and fold back the sides. Spoon the meringue into the bag and pull up the sides. Pipe onto 2 parchment lined baking sheets and place in the oven. Bake until the meringues are crisp, but have no color on them. This takes about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours depending on the size. Turn the oven off and leave the door ajar to let them cool completely.
