Time 2h30m

Yield Makes 36

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large egg whites, room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup dried cherries or dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
1/3 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 225 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat egg whites, cream of tartar, salt, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
  • Still beating, very gradually (1 tablespoon at a time) add sugar to egg whites. Continue to beat until sugar has dissolved and stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Gently fold in chopped dried cherries and chopped pecans.
  • Drop meringue mixture by rounded tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 1 inch apart. Bake, switching baking sheets halfway through, until meringues are dry, about 2 hours. Cool completely on baking sheets. These can be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

These meringues were a disaster. They were too dry and crumbly. I don't think I'll be making them again.

Overall, I thought these meringues were good, but not great. I might try a different recipe next time.

The cherry pecan filling was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I had some trouble getting the meringues to hold their shape. I think I might have overbeaten the egg whites.

These meringues are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're worth the effort. They're so delicious and impressive-looking.

I've never made meringues before, but this recipe made it so easy. I'm definitely going to be making these again.

These meringues are also great for making ahead of time. You can store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

I love serving these meringues with a dollop of whipped cream and a few fresh cherries on top.

The cherry pecan filling is the perfect complement to the meringue. It's sweet, tart, and just a little bit crunchy.

I've made these meringues several times now, and they always turn out perfectly. They're so easy to make, and they're always a crowd-pleaser.

These cherry pecan meringues were a hit at my last dinner party! They were so light and airy, and the cherry pecan filling was the perfect balance of sweet and tart.
