What is the difference between Finnish Meringue Cookies and other meringue that we know and love? These cookies have a soft dough-like texture as a base then filled and wrapped between swirls of soft meringue that when baked in the oven are super sweet with a chunky and chewy bite.
One will definitely not be enough, so double up the recipe because these sweet treats are too good to miss!
To make Finnish Meringue Cookies, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350 ̊F.
In a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer, beat the butter and 2 tablespoon sugar together until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift flour and baking soda together and combine.
Add dry ingredients to the combined butter and sugar with sour cream and egg yolks. Beat again, with the electric mixer until a cookie dough comes together.
Using a hand mixer to whisk egg whites and sugar for about 6-7 minutes until stiff and high peaks form. (If using cold egg whites, you will need to whisk for about 10 minutes.)
Roll out prepared dough onto a large piece of baking parchment into a 7x20-inch rectangle shape and evenly spread the prepared meringue over the top of the dough with the meringue.
Roll dough up from the bottom to the top into a long log. Slice log into ½-inch rounds and transfer to a lined baking sheet, arranged about 1-inch apart.
Bake in preheated oven for 15-17 minutes until golden.
Remove from heat and cool completely on wire racks, dust with confectioners' sugar before serving. Enjoy!
