In a separate bowl, whisk egg whites and salt on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Gradually whisk in remaining 1 cup confectioners' sugar. Continue to whisk until meringue is glossy and stiff, but not dry. 15-20 minutes. Transfer 1/3 cup ,meringue to a small bowl. Add remaining meringue to mixture in processor, pulse just until dough comes together. Place on parchment lightly dusted with confectioners sugar, pat into a disk and shill for 30 minutes. 3. Preheat oven to 300 degrees, with racks in middle and upper thirds. Dust top of dough lightly with confectioners' sugar, top with parchment, and roll to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut dough using 1 1/2 inch star shaped cutter, transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets. dip cutter into confectioners' sugar frequently to prevent dough from sticking. Re-roll scraps and cut more shapes. 4. Stir the water into reserved meringue; brush generously over tops of stars using a small paint brush. Bake, rotating sheets halfway through, until firm when gently pressed, but not hard and dry, 10-12 minutes. Let cookies cook completely on sheets on wire racks.
