Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Meringues on parchment paperI originally made these for a friend who loves the taste of chocolate peanut butter cups but finds them too heavy. This is the perfect solution! They're so good, I now prefer these over peanut butter cups, myself. The peanut butter meringues are so crisp and light, even dipped in chocolate, they make you feel much less guilty.

What's the oven temperature? I want to make these, but need to know how hot to make the oven.
