Justin and I love to entertain, but with schedules that seems to get more jam-packed by the minute, I find that we’re constantly on the hunt for quick and easy recipes that look significantly more involved than they are. Enter: this recipe for chocolate meringues (with nutella whipped cream!). They’re light as air, oddly beautiful in an imperfect-kind-of-way, and ridiculously delicious. Top with fresh berries, slivered almonds, chocolate shavings, or a combination of all the above, they make for the perfect thing to serve guests after a heavy meal.

Ingredients
- FOR THE CHOCOLATE SWIRL MERINGUES
- 3 egg whites
- 3/4 cup superfine sugar
- 1/2 tsp. real vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp. white wine vinegar
- 4 oz. dark chocolate, melted
- FOR THE NUTELLA WHIPPED CREAM
- 3/4 cup whipping cream
- 2 tbsp nutella
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 250°F. In the stand of your mixer, whisk the egg whites until frothy. Once frothy, slowly add in the sugar, vanilla and white wine vinegar.
- Mix on high until stiff peaks form and hold their shape. Drizzle the melted chocolate on top and gently fold the mixture (be careful not to mix or overfold!)
- Spoon heaping spoonfuls onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Drizzle with remaining chocolate and place in oven, on the lowest rack.
- Turn your oven down to 210°F and bake for 60-80 minutes. The meringues are ready when they easily lift from the parchment paper. At that point, turn off your oven and let meringues sit for another 10-20 minutes. Then, cool completely on wire racks.
- In the meantime, whip together the nutella and whipping cream until soft peaks form.
- To assemble, place a meringue on a plate, top with nutellla whipped cream, slivered almond, berries, and/or chocolate shavings.
