ORANGE CREAM MERINGUE CUPS
As a change from heavy desserts, I like to serve crisp meringue cups filled with a creamy orange custard. The shells and filling can be made in advance; fill just before serving.-Deirdre Cox, Kansas City, Missouri

Steps:
- In a large bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugars, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff peaks form., Drop meringue into six mounds on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Shape into 3-in. cups with the back of a spoon., Bake at 250° for 45 minutes or until set and dry. Turn oven off; leave meringues in oven for 1-1/2 hours., In a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, whisk the egg yolks, sugar, orange juice, juice concentrate and zest. Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is thickened and coats the back of a spoon. Transfer to a small bowl; cool for 10 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until chilled., Just before serving, beat cream until stiff peaks form. Fold into egg yolk mixture just until blended. Spoon mixture into meringue cups. Garnish with orange segments if desired.

[email protected]These were delicious! I used a store-bought orange curd and it worked perfectly. The meringue was a little tricky to make, but it was worth it. The cups were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used a sweeter orange curd.

[email protected]These orange cream meringue cups were a delightful treat! The combination of sweet and tangy orange filling and fluffy meringue was perfect. I loved the texture of the meringue, which was crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside.
