Meringue Roll 📕 Recipe here: Meringue Ingredients: • 190 g egg whites (approx. 6 eggs) • 1/4 tsp salt • 250 g sugar • 25 g cornstarch • 2 tbsp lemon juice • Almond flakes (for topping) Cream Ingredients: • 200 g cream cheese • 130 g heavy cream • 2 tbsp peanut butter • 20 g powdered sugar Instructions: 1. Prepare the meringue base: • Place egg whites in a clean, dry mixing bowl. Ensure no traces of yolk remain. • Beat on low speed until a light foam forms, then increase speed to high. Gradually add sugar, one spoon at a time. • Add lemon juice and continue mixing at medium speed until stiff peaks form (approx. 10–13 minutes). • Once peaks are firm, add cornstarch and whisk for another 10–15 seconds. 2. Shape and bake: • Preheat the oven to 320°F (160°C). • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Spread the meringue mixture evenly to a thickness of about 1.5 cm. • Sprinkle almond flakes on top. • Bake for 30 minutes until the surface is crisp but the inside remains soft. Avoid overbaking to ensure the meringue rolls without cracking excessively. 3. Prepare the cream filling: • Whisk together cream cheese, heavy cream, peanut butter, and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy. 4. Assemble the roll: • Once baked, carefully invert the meringue onto a clean sheet of parchment paper or a silicone mat. • Spread the cream evenly over the cooled meringue, applying a thinner layer near the outer edge to prevent overflow when rolling. • Optionally, add fresh berries, fruits, or nuts as toppings. 5. Roll and chill: • Gently roll the meringue into a log. Some cracking is natural, adding character to the dessert. • Wrap the roll tightly in cling film or foil and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. 6. Serve and decorate: • Before serving, garnish with berries, chocolate drizzle, or powdered sugar for a more elegant presentation. Bon appétit!
