An elegant but fairly simple dessert. I got the recipe from an elderly lady at a potluck dinner at our church. She said it's always a big hit every time she makes it and once won 1st place in a local bake off. The prep time is at least 16 hours, so I usually make it a day ahead of when I am going to serve it. Ingredients:
6 egg whites |
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 3/4 cups sugar |
6 ounces cream cheese, softened |
1 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 cups whipping cream, whipped |
2 cups miniature marshmallows |
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling |
2 cups fresh sliced strawberries |
1 cup blueberries |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until foamy. Gradually add the sugar, beating on high until stiff peaks form(do not underbeat). Spread evenly in a greased 9x13x2 baking pan.bake at 275* 1 hour, turn off oven but do not open door. Let cool in oven overnight (or at least 12 hours)Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth; gently fold in cream and marshmallows. Spread over meringue. Chill for 4 hours. Cut into 16 pieces. Combine topping ingredients; spoon 1/4 cup over each serving.
