PEPPERMINT MERINGUES
These delicious jumbo treats don't just taste like peppermint candies - they look like them too! To get the signature swirled look, paint stripes of gel food coloring inside your piping bag, before filling it with your meringue. When you pipe, the meringue will come out striped! You can do this with just about any color - just be sure to use gel coloring!

PEPPERMINT MERINGUE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE BUTTERCREAM
This is the cover recipe from Bon Appetit Magazine December 2009 issue. It's a lot of work, but well worth it for a unique cake that you won't see or taste anywhere else. I estimated the time at eight hours and have no idea if this is accurate. But suffice it to say, take a day off of work for this if you want it done in one day. This recipe also has make ahead instructions.
