Question:

Can i use a cookie press for meringue?

Im making meringue for a back sale and dont want to use a frosting bag. I know i can make meringue with a frosting press but its more expensive than a cookie press. And im more in need of a cookie press considering i have frosting bags and tips.Can i use it and have them still turn out great?

Answer:

Frosting press? Cookie press? For meringue? No. Not necessary. Take really big glops of meringue out of the bowl with a spatula, and set it on your pie in 3 or four sections, and carefully redistribute the meringue until smooth. Take a tablespoon and make the peaks with the back of it, or swirl with your spatula. Meringue is very delicate, being mostly air if you press it out, you will lose the air.
