1
Preheat oven to 250u00b0F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2
Add egg whites, orange extract, cream of tartar and salt to the clean bowl of a stand mixer. Beat on low until egg whites turn white and frothy. Turn mixer to high and add sugar very slowly, 1 tablespoon at a time. Keep adding sugar slowly. Beat until meringue forms stiff glossy peaks. The meringue should feel smooth when rubbed between your thumb and index finger. This can take anywhere from 7-10 minutes.
3
Attach a large piping tip to a disposable piping bag. Add about 1/3 cup of meringue to piping bag. Drizzle 1/8 teaspoon orange food coloring down one side of the piping bag. Carefully fill the piping bag with meringue, trying not to disrupt the food coloring.
4
Pipe meringue in small cookies about 2 1/2 inches wide. Cook at 250u00b0F for 35 minutes and shut off oven. Leave them in there for 2-3 hours. Store in airtight containers.
