X
This dessert is named for the famous Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. It was first developed in either Australia or New Zealand, a point of major contention between the two, after one of her appearances Down Under.
Ingredients
- 3 eggs (separated)
- ¾ c. superfine (caster) sugar
- 1¼ c. whipping cream
- mixed fresh fruit
Steps
- Preheat oven to 275° F. Line a large cookie sheet with baking parchment.
- Whisk egg whites till they form soft peaks. Whisk in sugar, a little at a time, whisking well after each addition.
- Spoon ¾ of meringue onto cookie sheet forming 8-in. diameter circle.
- Place spoonfuls of remaining meringue around edge of meringue circle so that they touch, making a nest shape.
- Bake for 1¼-hrs.
- Turn off oven, but leave meringue inside till it's completely cold. (Overnight is best.)
- Transfer meringue to serving plate; then gently spread inside of meringue with lightly whipped cream.
- Arrange fruit on top of whipped cream.
Notes
- It is easiest to make the meringue crust the night before it is needed.You can then leave it in the turned off oven overnight.
