  • pinch of salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar superfine (blend regular sugar if you don't have superfine)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 225 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. For same size nests, draw 3 inch circles on the parchment paper and turn the paper upside down.
  2. Pavlova Nests
  3. Beat the egg whites at medium speed until foamy. Add salt and cream of tarter, and beat at medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Add sugar one tablespoon at a time and beat on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  4. Put meringue in a pastry bag with a decorator tip (I used Wilton 1M). Outline the nests and fill the bottoms with meringue. Build up the nests with two rows of meringue.
  5. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until the nests are dry to the touch. Turn off the oven and leave the nests in the oven for 2 hours to continue to dry out.
  6. Whipped Cream Filling
  7. Beat the heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract on high speed until soft peaks form. Pipe the filling into the nests.
  8. Top with fruit and enjoy right away.

Notes

  • The nests can be made and stored in airtight containers for several days before serving. The whipped cream filling can be made a day before filling the nests. Assemble right before enjoying, so the whipped cream does not soften the meringue nests.
