Preheat the oven to 200˚ and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper
Wipe down your mixer bowl and whisk attachment with vinegar to remove any grease, wipe dry
with a clean paper towel
Put the cream of tartar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment
Pour the room temperature egg whites over it, turn the mixer on low and let it mix in the cream
of tartar
Slowly increase the speed to medium and beat until the mixture is foamy
Then increase the speed to high and beat until it holds soft peaks
Then slowly add the sugar Tablespoon by Tablespoon beating well between each addition
Beat until it holds stiff peaks and it’s glossy
Add the vanilla and beat it in for 30 seconds
Cut the tip off of a disposable icing bag and fit it with a one-inch tip, you can use bigger or
smaller tips too-you can also just use a bag without a tip, they work just fine that way too
Pipe your Boos on the prepared sheets, you can put them close together because they don’t
spread very much
Fill your sheets with them, make sure the bottom is wider than the top and pull up while you stop
squeezing the piping bag to make a little point
Add the eyes now, they don’t have to be perfect, in fact, they’re more fun if you make them silly
Bake the trays for 60 minutes, rotating them halfway through
If you bake in the lower portion of the oven you won’t get browned ghosts
Once they’re baked turn off the door let the Boos cool in the oven for 60 minutes
Remove them from the oven and let cool completely
Once they’re cool add eyes and a mouth as desired
These are best made the day you plan to eat them
