Sweet Sugar Mountains

The best thing about my foray into homemade ice-cream - other than eating it :-)  - is the the fact that I find myself with a bowl of egg whites -
and egg whites = MERINGUES !!


Meringues are the perfect summer dessert - imagine these little beauties crumbled into thick whipped cream and ripe strawberries, or sandwiched together with dark chocolate ganache!!

And don't be put off by people telling you they are difficult to make -give them a try - and let me know how you get on.

Mmmm, yum! When I was a kid in England these were one of my favourites, they were sandwiched together with fresh cream. Thanks for sharing.
Luv, Babs
