ingredients
- 4 chocolate wafer cookies
- 1 cup reduced-fat strawberry ice cream (such as Dreyer's Slow-Churned ice cream)
- 3 egg whites
- 6 tablespoons sugar
- 1⁄8 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla
directions
- Spread and flatten 4 foil muffin liners into circles. Place on a baking sheet and place a wafer cookie on the center of each. Top each wafer with 1/4 cup of ice cream. Place in freezer.
- In a small saucepan, combine egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar. Beat mixture on low speed with a hand mixer for 1 minute. Continue beating mixture over low heat until the mixture reaches 160° F, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat and add vanilla.
- Beat egg white mixture until stiff peaks form and sugar is dissolved, about 4 minutes. Take care not to overbeat.
- Remove baking sheet from freezer. Immediately spread meringue over ice cream, sealing to edges of wafers. Use a spatula or butter knife to form peaks to make a more attractive presentation (touch the spatula to the meringue and then quickly pull it away).
- Broil 4-6 inches from heat for 1-2 minutes or until meringue is lightly browned. Watch carefully to avoid overbrowning.
- Serve immediately.
