Total Time: 1 hour, 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- 4 large egg whites
- 1 tsp white vinegar
- 1 cup ultra-fine baker’s sugar
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- .
- 2 cups light or fat-free whipped topping
- 1/2 dry pint fresh raspberries
- 1/2 dry pint fresh blueberries
- 1 cup sliced strawberries
Preparation:
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, whisk egg whites and vinegar at high speed until soft peaks form.
Add sugar gradually—one tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each one. Once all the sugar has been mixed in, add cornstarch and vanilla. Mix until blended. The meringue mixture should form stiff, shiny peaks that feel smooth between your fingers.
Spoon the meringue into a large mound in the center of the parchment paper, forming a 7-8-inch circle.
Bake for an hour until the outside is dry and slightly crispy. The inside should still be soft.
Turn off oven, open the door a little and allow meringue to cool completely.
Transfer cooled meringue to a plate. Spoon whipped topping on to meringue. Add fruit and serve immediately.
Serves 8.
