Candy Bar Meringue Torte Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Bake: 50 min. + standing

Yield: 12 Servings

20 50 70

Ingredients

6 egg whites
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1-1/2 cups sugar
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
4 Butterfinger candy bars (2.1 ounces each), coarsely crushed, divided

Directions

Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. Using a pencil, draw a 10-in. circle on each of two sheets of parchment paper. Place each sheet, pencil mark down, on a baking sheet or pizza pan; set aside.
Add vanilla and cream of tartar to egg whites; beat on medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, on high until stiff peaks form.
Spread into 10-in. circles on prepared pans. Bake at 225° for 50-60 minutes or until set and lightly browned. Turn oven off; leave meringues in oven for 1 to 1-1/4 hours.
Just before serving, place whipped topping in a large bowl; fold in three candy bars. Place one meringue layer on a serving plate; top with half of topping mixture. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with remaining candy bar. Yield: 12 servings.

Fun Ice Cream Idea

For a fun dessert sure to impress guests, I roll individually frozen balls of ice cream in fun toppings like chopped nuts, toasted coconut or chopped candy bars. Then I freeze the balls until firm and arrange in a pretty serving bowl. Guests can choose whichever combination appeals to them. —Eileen Greiss, Youngtown, Arizona
