Mini Pavlova's with Maple Vanilla Whipped Cream

My favorite dessert is pavlova! If I see it on a menu, I'm 99% going to order it. I love how it's crispy and light on the outside with a slight marshmallow experience inside. Check out the recipe below!

RECIPE - 6 mini pavlovas

Pavlova: Recipe by Chef John from Food Wishes

• 3/4 cup of sugar

• 2 tsp of cornstarch

• 3 eggs (yolk separated from whites)

• 3/4 tsp of vinegar

• 1 tsp of vanilla extract

• 1-2 cups of berries

• 1 tbsp of honey

Maple Vanilla Whipped Cream - Recipe by me :)

• 1 pint of cold heavy cream

• 2 tbsp of maple syrup (up to you!)

• 1 tsp of vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:

1. Pre-heat the oven to 250 Fahrenheit

2. Mix the sugar and cornstarch in a bowl

3. Whisk the egg whites in a separate bowl until foamy/ribbony

4. Slowly add in the sugar and cornstarch into the egg whites

5. Whisk for about 2 minutes, until glossy

6. Add vinegar and vanilla extract

7. Whisk until glossy and stiff peak

8. Using 1/4 measuring cup, spoon on the meringue onto a lined baking sheet (no wax paper, it'll stick!). Should make 6 mini pavlovas

9. Create a well in the center of each pavlovas and wall around the side - That's where the cream will go

10. Bake at 250 degrees for 1 hour

11. After, crack open the door for 1 hour, letting the pavlovas cool. Do not touch!

12. In a small bowl, combine the berries and honey. Mix and set it aside.

13. 10 mins before serving - In a bowl, combine heavy cream, maple syrup, and vanilla extract

14. Whisk until thick - Do not over mix or it'll become butter

15. Top the cooled pavlovas with the whipped cream and honey berries

ENJOY!
