Instructions
Mix the dough
Combine powdered sugar, egg white, and vanilla extract in a bowl until a thick, smooth dough forms.
Adjust consistency
Add more powdered sugar if the dough is too wet or sticky until it reaches the right playdough-like texture.
Add food coloring
Split the dough and add different food colors to create various shades if desired.
Shape the meringues
Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 tablespoon each, and place on parchment paper.
Microwave the meringues
Microwave one ball at a time on parchment paper for 30-45 seconds until it puffs up and looks set.
Cool completely
Let the meringues cool completely on the parchment paper so they can firm up properly.
