List of Ingredients




6 egg whites
¼ tsp. salt
Pinch cream of tartar
1½ c. sugar
2 c. cream for whipping
4 c. strawberries: washed, hulled, sliced and sweetened
OR: 1 pkg. frozen sliced strawberries, slightly thawed (1 pound)

Beat egg whites until foamy in large bowl; add salt and cream of tartar, beat 5 min., or until mixture forms soft peaks. Beat in sugar, a tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition to dissolve sugar completely before adding more. (Beating should take about 30 minutes.) Line a large cookie sheet with brown paper. Spoon meringue into 2 mounds on paper, then spread into 2 squares 8x8". Bake at 250 for 1 hour. Turn heat off, but let meringues remain in oven with door closed at least 8 hours or overnight, or until completely dry. Peel brown paper from meringues, then put them back on cookie sheet. Beat cream until stiff in large bowl; spread generously over meringues. Chill 6 to 8 hours, or overnight. (The longer the better, as moisture from cream softens and mellows them.) Put squares together, layer-cake fashion, with strawberries between and on top. Cut into squares with a sharp knife.
