teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8
teaspoon cream of tartar

cup sugar
1. Draw an 8-inch circle on heavy brown paper*. Place paper on baking sheet. In a mixing bowl combine egg whites, ground cinnamon, an cream of tartar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high speed about 4 minutes more or until mixture forms stiff, glossy peaks (tips stand straight) and sugar dissolves.

Pipe a shell border on edge of meringue circle about 1-1/4 inches high. The completed shell should be about 9-1/2 inches in diameter (Or, spread all of the meringue over a 9-1/2-inch circle building up the edge.)
