RECIPE


Chocolate Meringue Stars with Raspberry Sauce
By Jamie Geller

Next to Macaroons, Chef Jamie Geller thinks meringues are probably the most inherently Pesach-friendly dessert you will find. She loves taking a year-round favorite, and not having to worry about making special adjustments. Fold in some cocoa powder and serve with a dipping sauce (made from jam and lemon juice) and upgrade these to a fab closer of your holiday meal.

Chocolate Meringue Stars with Raspberry Sauce

Times:
• Prep time: 15
Cook time: 120
Ready time: 2 hour, 15 min

Servings: 20 Stars

Ingredients For Meringue:
2 lg. Egg Whites, (at room temperature)
4 tbls. Confectioners' Sugar, (sifted)
3 tspn. Cocoa Powder, (sifted)
pinch Kosher Salt

Ingredients For Dipping Sauce :
1/2 cup Raspberry Jam
1 tbls. Lemon Juice

Procedures:
1. Preheat oven to 200°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

2. With an electric mixer, beat egg whites until it just holds soft peaks. With mixer running, add a tablespoon of sugar at a time, beating on high until stiff, glossy peaks hold. Gently fold in salt and cocoa powder.

3. Transfer meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch star tip. Pipe 1-inch wide stars about 1/2-inch apart until you have used all the meringue. If you don't have a pastry bag or tips, you can fill a gallon Ziploc and trim the tip off. Pipe small circles as you would with a pastry bag.

4. Bake 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until meringues are dry and crisp. Turn the oven off and cool in the oven with the door propped open for 1 hour.

5. In a small bowl, combine jam with lemon juice and stir to loosen. If still too thick, add a few drops of water until jam is the right consistency to use as a dipping sauce.
