Ingredients
2 egg whites.
Pinch cream of tartar.
1/2 cup caster sugar.
1 tablespoon cocoa powder.
4 scoops ice cream.
200 grams mixed berries.
Method
Preheat oven to 150 C.
Line a tray with baking paper, and draw four 7cm circles.
Using an electric mixer, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
Add sugar, a little at a time, beating for at least 1 minute after each addition.
Once all the sugar has been added, beat until meringue is thick and glossy.
Add the cocoa and beat until mixed through.
Spoon the meringue onto the prepared tray, using the circles as a guide.
Make a shallow well in the middle of each nest.
Bake for 30 minutes then reduce temperature to 120 C.
Bake for a further 30 minutes. Meringue should be dry and crisp.
Turn oven off and leave door ajar. Allow to cool completely in the oven.
Serving
