Anybody who needs to cook a lot of these should be using the regular oven method, not a torch. Preheat the oven as hot as it will go (450-500F). The completely topped cookies should be frozen solid and should go onto a cookie sheet with a little space in between. Watch the time--after 2 minutes start checking for the meringue to be brown on top. Time depends on how big your cookies are, how solidly frozen they were, and how many of them you stuff in at once.
