Ingredients:
- 6 egg whites

- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pint heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Serves: 8
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Gradually add in the sugar, cream of tartar, and salt, and continue to beat until the mixture is glossy and smooth. Add in the vanilla extract and mix well.
Spread the meringue mixture into a greased 9-inch pie dish, making sure to create a well in the center. Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 300°F and bake for an additional 45 minutes.
While the meringue is baking, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks. Once the meringue is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely. Once cooled, fill the well in the center with the whipped cream and sprinkle with chopped nuts (optional).
The Creamy Meringue Delight is a perfect dessert for any occasion. It is light, airy, and has a perfect balance of sweetness and creaminess. The meringue has a crispy exterior and a soft, marshmallow-like interior, while the whipped cream adds a creamy and smooth texture. The chopped nuts add a crunchy texture and a nutty flavor that complements the sweetness of the meringue and cream.
