Well don’t be too hard on yourself…you can do that later when you’ve eaten the entire batch.

The YouTube channel, The Perfect Home is known for its effortless recipes and this one does not disappoint. Using just 6 egg yolks and a cup of granulated sugar, the recipe is an interesting spin on a traditional meringue. Meringues are typically egg whites, sugar, cream and vanilla.

So drop what you’re doing, it’s time to dust off that mixer.

The Perfect Home chef recommends blending the egg yolks and sugar for 15 minutes.

The batter can then be poured into a mold of your choice or simply onto parchment paper. After blending, you will notice the batter has a silky, smooth texture. Depending on the mold you choose, you will end up with about 10-12 treats.

They are baked for an hour at 350-400 (F) and 100-200 (C).

We warn you that watching the batter being gently placed into the tiny cupcake molds is somewhat soothing and may send you into a meditative, zen-like state.
