  • Spread ¼ inch thick of the meringue in a circle on the baking sheet. Pipe or spoon the remaining meringue to form a taller edge around the circle to create a shallow bowl.
  • Bake in oven for 1 hour. Turn the oven off, don't open the oven, and leave in for 30 minutes.
  • Beat the powdered sugar and cream with an electric mixer until it's thick. Spread onto the meringue and top with fruit.
