Time 45m

Yield 6-8 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 large egg whites
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips, optional
FILLING:
2 milk chocolate candy bars (1.55 ounces each)
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Additional whipped cream, optional

Steps:

  • In a bowl, beat egg whites, vanilla, cream of tartar and salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugars, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold in pecans. Grease the bottom and sides of a 9-in. pie plate, leaving top edge ungreased. Spread meringue onto the bottom and up the sides of prepared plate. Build up top edge. Bake at 350° for 20-30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack., If chocolate stars are desired, melt chocolate chips. Transfer chocolate to a small heavy-duty resealable bag; cut a small hole in one corner of bag. On a waxed paper-lined baking sheet, pipe chocolate into star shapes. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes. When ready to serve, carefully remove stars with a metal spatula., For filling, in a heavy saucepan, combine candy bars, unsweetened chocolate and water. Cook and stir over low heat until melted. Pour into a large bowl; cool to room temperature. Stir in vanilla. Fold in whipped cream; pour into the crust. Top with additional whipped cream and chocolate stars if desired.
