Meringue cookies can be tricky because they're sensitive to temperature changes. One possible reason for burning could be the oven temperature being too high or leaving them in for too long. It's crucial to monitor them closely during baking and adjust the temperature or time accordingly. Also, make sure to use a clean, dry bowl and utensils when whipping the egg whites, as any oil or moisture can affect the meringue's stability.

Hello baking enthusiast! Prevent burnt meringue by adjusting oven temperature, using parchment, and tenting with foil if needed.
