Method:

Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Add the cream of tartar and a pinch of salt and beat until stiff.

Add the sugar, 25ml at a time, beating well between each addition to dissolve the sugar.

Fold in the vanilla with the last 25ml of castor sugar and the nuts or chocolate.

Line baking trays with baking paper. Spoon small rounds of the meringue mixture onto the trays. Bake in a preheated oven for one hour. Switch the oven off and leave for 1-2 hours to dry out.
