Cracker Meringue Cookies
Sometimes, the laziness gets to me too. When I feel like making quick cookies, and don’t have a lot of time on my hands, these crisp cracker meringue cookies can be considered. They are based on small, round and salty crackers, as a cookie base. All there’s left to do is to make a simple meringue, and bake.

- Pipe the meringue on top of each cracker, and cover it with another cracker.
