Beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and vanilla extract together with a mixer on high speed. Beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar as you continue beating ingredients until mixture is shimmery and stiff. Gradually fold the mini M&M’S® into the mixture. Do not over fold because the candy coated coloring will begin to bleed. On a greased cookie sheet, drop by the teaspoon a small dollop of mixture. Bake for 15-20 minutes in a 350o F oven. Repeat until there is no more dough.

C H E F ' S N O T E The larger the dollop the longer the cooktime and
