This was relatively easy (I don't own a standing mixer, only a hand-mixer) and tasty. The first time I made it, I tried to use carton egg whites. Don't bother, they don't peak... at all. I brought one to work and the second to a dinner party and both were consumed quickly. It was bit sweet for me, I'll try it with less sugar next time.
