   ["Preheat the oven to 350 F. Place 10"" mold circle (I used 10"" bottom from spring form) onto a parchment paper. Trace the circle with a pencil. Cut 2"" away from the traced circle. Make 3 same traced parchment paper molds. Set it aside.", "Carefully separate egg yolks from whites. Place all 12 egg whites into an electric mixer bowl. Add sugar. Beat egg whites and sugar for about 15 minutes (I used heavy duty 6000 HD Kitchen Aid Mixer). The beating time may vary depends what mixer you use. The thickness of the meringue is very important. It should be very thick and heavy with no sugar pieces in there.", "Fill the piping bag with meringue 3/4 full. Flip the parchment paper upside down so the pencil trace is on the other side and clean side up. Pipe meringue circular shapes (reversed letter ""c"") along the traced with a pencil circle. Then fill in the inside. Straiten the inside of the circle, leaving the edges nicely piped. Repeat the same steps with all 3 same traced parchment paper molds.", "Top oven rack should be in the middle of the oven and second oven rack should be placed right under the top one. Placed meringue circles into the oven one at a time. Slide cookie sheet under the parchment paper of one meringue. Carefully transfer the parchment paper with meringue circle onto an oven rack. Repeat the same steps with all 3 meringue circles. As soon as you transferred all 3 meringues, close the oven door and reduce oven temperature to 270 F. Let it dry for 7 minute. Then reduce oven temperature to 220 F and let the meringue dry in the oven for 6 hours. After 6 hours is up, I turn the oven off and let the meringue cool in the oven overnight.
