It\u2019s got a crisp yet marshmallowy meringue shell with a creamy, slightly tangy filling that melts in your mouth. It sounds fancy, but it\u2019s honestly not as intimidating as it looks \u2014 let\u2019s dive right in!<\/p>\n

Meringue Ingredients \ud83c\udf65:
\n\ud83e\udd5a 190 g egg whites (approx. 6 eggs)
\n\ud83e\uddc2 1\/4 tsp salt
\n\ud83c\udf6c 250 g sugar
\n\ud83c\udf3d 25 g cornstarch
\n\ud83c\udf4b 2 tbsp lemon juice
\n\ud83c\udf30 Almond flakes (for topping)<\/p>\n

Cream Filling \ud83e\uddc1:
\n\ud83e\uddc0 200 g cream cheese
\n\ud83e\udd5b 130 g heavy cream
\n\ud83e\udd5c 2 tbsp peanut butter
\n\ud83c\udf5a 20 g powdered sugar<\/p>\n

\ud83e\udd5a Meringue Magic<\/h3>\n

Start with 190 g of egg whites<\/strong>, which is about 6 medium eggs. Make sure there\u2019s no trace of yolk, or your meringue won\u2019t whip properly. Add a \u00bc teaspoon of salt<\/strong> \u2014 this helps to stabilize the whites and gives them a little lift. Begin whipping the egg whites until they get frothy, then gradually add in 250 g of sugar<\/strong> while continuing to beat. You\u2019ll want to whip until you reach stiff, glossy peaks. This is the secret to that cloud-like texture we all love.<\/p>\n

Once your mixture is nice and glossy, gently fold in 25 g of cornstarch<\/strong> (it helps keep the meringue soft inside) and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice<\/strong> for a subtle zing and stability. Spread the mixture evenly onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle some almond flakes<\/strong> on top \u2014 they toast up beautifully and add a nutty crunch. Bake at a low temperature (around 150\u00b0C or 300\u00b0F) for 25\u201330 minutes, until it\u2019s just lightly golden.<\/p>\n

\ud83e\uddc1 Creamy Dreamy Filling<\/h3>\n

While your meringue cools, whip up the filling. In a bowl, blend 200 g of cream cheese<\/strong> until smooth. Add in 130 g of heavy cream<\/strong> and whisk until it becomes thick and fluffy. Then stir in 2 tablespoons of peanut butter<\/strong> for a hint of richness and nuttiness, and finish it off with 20 g of powdered sugar<\/strong> to balance everything out.<\/p>\n

Once the meringue has cooled, carefully flip it onto a clean sheet of parchment, spread that gorgeous cream mixture all over, then roll it up gently. Chill it for a bit to set, slice, and serve!<\/p>\n

Seriously \u2014 one bite of this and you’ll be floating on dessert clouds. \ud83c\udf70\u2728<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
