7GramsCornstarch
5GramsVinegar

Instructions
Pavlovas
Preheat the oven to 325F
In a stand mixer, add in the egg whites, cornstarch and vinegar. Mix in a low/medium speed until frothy.
8 Egg Whites, 7 Grams Cornstarch, 5 Grams Vinegar
Once it is frothy, sprinkle in the sugar one spoonful at a time. Make sure you give some time in between for the sugar to incorporate into the egg white mixture.
250 Grams Sugar
Once all the sugar is added, turn up the mixer to 8 until it is a medium peak. It is not stiff, but it is almost there.
Prep a piping bag with a large star. Add in all the egg mixture.
On prepared parchment paper on baking trays, pipe 6 circles per tray. I do it like you are piping a cupcake, and then at the end take a spoon and make an indent in the top so you can add in whipped cream and fruit. If you do not have a piping bag, you can use a spoon to mound it.
Place in the oven for 1.5 hours. Once they are baked, turn off the oven and leave them inside until they cool about 2-4 hours, or even overnight. This will dry them out so they do not crack. If you pull them out early, they will just crack a little bit, but will still be delicious!
Whipped Cream
In a glass bowl, add in whipping cream, vanilla and icing sugar.
