Ingredients
2 large Lion brand egg whites
100 g (4 oz) caster sugar
75 g (3 oz) milk chocolate drops
Tartan ribbon and icing sugar
Preheat oven to 140C, 275F or gas mark 1. Grease a large baking sheet and line with baking parchment. Whisk egg whites until stiff peaks form. Add around a third of the sugar and whisk again until egg whites are stiff and shiny. Add remaining sugar in two more batches and whisk again. Use a dessertspoon to place five round heaps of meringue on the tray around 6 cm (3 in) in diameter for bodies then use a teaspoon to make five smaller heaps for heads. Bake for one hour until crisp. Cool.
Put aside 10 chocolate drops for eyes and melt remaining chocolate and use to stick on heads, attach chocolate eyes and paint on smiles. Wrap ribbon around necks of snowmen and glue ends with chocolate. Dust with icing sugar.
