Pretty Sweet Emerald Pizza

Ingredients

• 3 large egg whites, room temperature
• ¼ tsp salt
• ½ tsp cream of tartar
• 1 ⅛ cups sugar
• ½ cup strawberry purée
• White chocolate, chilled for shaving
• ¾ cup Emerald Grapes, halved lengthwise

Directions

1. Prepare the Meringue
   1. Adjust oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 300°F.
   2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
   3. In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar on medium speed until foamy.
   4. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue whipping until stiff, glossy peaks hold.
2. Shape and Bake
   1. Spoon meringue onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into a circle about 8 inches in diameter, creating a “pizza” shape with a crust on the outside of the circle.
   2. Bake for 1 hour, until crisp on the outside and lightly golden.
   3. Turn off the oven and leave the “pizza” inside to dry for at least 3 hours.
   4. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely, about 30 minutes.
3. Assemble the Pizza
   1. Spread strawberry purée evenly across the cooled meringue base.
   2. Scatter the halved Emerald Grapes around the pizza.
   3. Using a grater, shave chilled white chocolate over the top.
4. Serve
   1. Slice gently with a serrated knife and serve immediately.
