Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 large egg whites
a pinch of cream of tartar
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
vanilla ice cream
cinnamon chocolate sauce
For the sauce:
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1/2 stick (1/4cup) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Make the sauce:
  • In a small heavy saucepan combine the cream and the brown sugar, bring the mixture to a boil over moderately high heat, whisking occasionally, and boil it, whisking, until the brown sugar is dissolved. Remove the pan from the heat, add the chocolates, and whisk the mixture until they are melted. Whisk in the butter and the cinnamon, whisking until the sauce is smooth, and let the sauce cool slightly. The sauce may be made 1 week in advance and kept covered and chilled. Reheat the sauce over very low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warm. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
  • Make the meringues:
  • In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the egg whites until they are foamy, add the cream of tartar, and beat the whites until they hold soft peaks. Add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating, and beat the meringue until it holds stiff peaks. Sift the cocoa powder and the cinnamon over the meringue and fold them in gently but thoroughly. Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch star tip and pipe it into 5-inch rounds on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. Bake the meringues in the middle of a preheated 250°F. oven for 1 1/2 hours and let them cool on the sheets. The meringues may be made 10 days in advance and kept, separated with sheets of wax paper, in an airtight container. Arrange 1 meringue on each of 2 plates and top each meringue with a scoop of the ice cream and some of the cinnamon chocolate sauce.

Yield Makes about 16 meringues

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 large egg whites
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
3 ounces semisweet chocolate, grated coarse

Steps:

  • In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they are foamy, add the cream of tartar, and beat the whites until they hold soft peaks. Add the cinnamon and beat the whites for 30 seconds. Sift the confectioners' sugar with the cornstarch in 6 batches over the whites, beating the mixture for 30 seconds after each addition. Fold in the chocolate gently but thoroughly and drop heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the meringues in the middle of a preheated 300°F. oven for 30 mixture, or until they are firm when touched lightly. Turn off the oven and let the meringues stand in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour. Transfer the meringues to a rack and let them cool completely. Keep the meringues in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature before you start. This will help them whip up more easily and give you a better meringue.
  • Use a clean bowl and whisk. Any grease or residue can prevent the egg whites from whipping up properly.
  • Whip the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing the speed as they start to foam. This will help prevent the whites from curdling.
  • Continue whipping the egg whites until they reach stiff peaks. This means that when you lift the whisk out of the bowl, the peaks of the meringue will stand straight up.
  • Add the sugar gradually, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to whip the egg whites. This will help prevent the meringue from becoming grainy.
  • Once all of the sugar has been added, continue whipping the meringue for a few minutes longer, until it is thick and glossy.
  • Pipe the meringue onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use a large round tip for a classic meringue shape, or a star tip for a more decorative look.
  • Bake the meringues in a low oven (200°F) for 1-2 hours, or until they are dry and crisp.
  • Once the meringues are cool, you can enjoy them as is or use them to top pies, cakes, or other desserts.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon chocolate meringues are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed on their own or used to top other desserts. With their crispy exterior and fluffy interior, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cinnamon chocolate meringues a try.
