How to make it

  • Beat egg whites,salt and cream of tartar until stiff and glossy.
  • Gradually beat in sugar,beat until stiff.
  • Make three 8" circles out of wax paper,place on baking sheet,and spread the meringue evenly on the circles,it should be 1/4"thick.
  • Bake for 25 minutes in a 250 degree oven .
  • Meringue should be slightly golden,but still pliable.
  • Remove from oven and very carefully peel the wax paper off the back.
  • Place on racks to cool and dry.
  • Melt the chocolate,sit aside.
  • Whip cream,gradually add sugar,beat until very stiff,Chambord would be nice to flavor the whipped cream.
  • To Assemble:
  • Put a meringue layer on a pretty serving plate.Carefully spread a layer of melted chocolate using half the chocolate.Next spread a 1/2" layer of whipped cream,and half of the berries.
  • Repeat.
  • Place the last meringue on top,frost with the remaining whipped cream,being sure to cover sides and top.
  • Decorate the top with whole berries.
  • Refrigerate for about 2 hours.
  • Note: Would not use Blueberries,they seem to muddle the whipped cream...Strawberries,or Raspberries are nice.
