Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg whites
- 200 grams Granulated sugar
- 85 grams Dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a clean, dry heatproof bowl, add the egg whites and pinch of salt.
Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water (making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water) and whisk constantly until the egg whites are warm to the touch and the sugar is fully dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.
Transfer the egg white mixture to a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and beat for another 10 seconds to combine.
Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate using a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until smooth.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the whipped meringue, but don’t mix—it should create streaks for the marbled effect.
Using two spoons, scoop mounds of the marbled meringue onto the prepared baking sheets. Be careful not to over-mix as you scoop to preserve the marbled pattern.
Bake in the preheated oven for 90 minutes, rotating the trays halfway through. The meringues should be dry to the touch but still light inside.
Turn off the oven and leave the meringues inside to cool completely, about 1-2 hours. This helps avoid cracks.
Once cooled, store the meringues in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
