Berries on a Cloud


  • CRUST:
  • 6 egg whites
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups sugar

  • FILLING:
  • 1 8 oz. package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powder sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pint whipping cream
  • 2 cups miniature marshmallows

  • TOPPING:
  • 1 (21 ounce) can raspberry or cherry pie filling
  • 2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt until foamy. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high until stiff peaks form (do not underbeat- could take up to 15 minutes). Spread evenly in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Bake at 275 degrees F for 1 hour; turn off oven (do not open door). Let cool in oven overnight or at least 12 hours.

Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth.  Add about 1/2 cup whipping cream and continue to mix until creamy smooth.  Slowly add the remaining whipping cream and mix until thickened.  Spread filling over meringue. Chill for 4 hours. Cut into 16 pieces. Combine topping ingredients; spoon topping over each serving.
