Serving Size: 8

Cooking Time: 90 minutes

Ingredients

• 6 Whole egg whites
• 0.125 Teaspoon (tsp) cream of tartar
• 1 Cup white sugar
• 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) cornstarch
• 2 Teaspoons (tsp) distilled white vinegar
• 1.25 Cups heavy cream, chilled
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) vanilla extract
• 2 Teaspoons (tsp) confectioners' sugar
• 4 Whole passion fruits, peeled

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Grease the interior of an 8-inch springform pan and dust lightly with cornstarch.
2. In a glass or ceramic bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff and glossy. Ensure no grease or yolk is present.
3. Combine cream of tartar, white sugar, and cornstarch. Gradually beat into the egg whites. Sprinkle vinegar over the mixture and fold in gently.
4. Pile the meringue into the prepared pan, spreading to the sides and leaving a slight depression in the center.
5. Place in the preheated oven, close the door, and immediately reduce the temperature to 250°F (120°C). Bake for 75 to 90 minutes.
6. Open the oven door and leave the meringue inside for an additional 15 minutes. Remove to a draft-free spot, carefully remove the springform pan rim, and allow to cool completely.
7. Whip the cream, vanilla extract, and confectioners' sugar until thick and firm. Spread over the cooled meringue.
8. Remove the pulp from the passion fruits and spoon over the cream. If using kiwi, peel and slice, then arrange the slices on top. Chill until serving.
