Ingredients
  

For the Meringue
  • 4 large Egg Whites Room temperature
  • ¼ teaspoon Cream of Tartar
  • 1 cup Sugar Superfine for smooth incorporation
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Juice Enhances flavor
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Blackberries Can swap with raspberries
  • 1 cup Strawberries Sliced for better presentation
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream Whip until soft peaks form

Equipment

  • Electric Mixer
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and draw a 10-inch circle as a guide for shaping the meringue.
  2. In a large bowl, whip room temperature egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Gradually add sugar, continuing to whip until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Gently fold in cornstarch and lemon juice with a spatula, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  4. Spoon the meringue mixture onto the prepared parchment paper, using the drawn circle as a guide, and create a slight well in the center.
  5. Bake the meringue for 45-55 minutes until dry and lightly golden. Turn off the oven and let it cool inside for about 1 hour without opening the door.
  6. In a clean bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining sugar, continue beating until glossy and holds shape.
  7. Toss blackberries and sliced strawberries with a sprinkle of sugar; let sit for about 10 minutes to enhance their sweetness.
  8. Transfer the cooled meringue to a serving plate, add whipped cream to the center, and top with berries.
