Ingredients

  • teaspoons butter 
  • 0.5 teaspoon cream of tartar 
  • 1.5 cups pasteurized egg whites (such as Eggology)
  • 30 ounce raspberries in syrup light frozen thawed undrained
  • 0.3 teaspoon salt 
  • 2.5 cups sugar 
  • 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract 
  • 1.5 cups non-dairy whipped topping frozen thawed reduced-calorie

Equipment

  • food processor
  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • oven
  • knife
  • sieve
  • blender
  • springform pan

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 45
  2. Place the egg whites and salt in a large bowl, and beat with a mixer at medium speed until foamy.
  3. Add the cream of tartar; beat for 1 minute. Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until well blended (about 8 minutes).
  4. Add vanilla extract. Increase mixer speed to high, and beat for 5 minutes or until soft peaks form. (Do not underbeat.) Coat the inside of a 10-inch springform pan with butter, and add meringue, spreading evenly. Break air pockets by cutting through meringue with a knife.
  5. Place pan in 450 oven. Turn the oven off, and cool in closed oven for at least 24 hours.
  6. Drain the raspberries, reserving 1/4 cup liquid.
  7. Place raspberries in a food processor, and process until smooth. Press raspberry mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl to measure 1 1/4 cups. Discard solids. Stir in the reserved raspberry liquid. Spoon cooled meringue into bowls.
  8. Drizzle with raspberry mixture, and top with whipped topping.
  9. Note: Egg whites that have been beaten until soft peaks form maintain a glossy appearance. The texture of the whites is only lightly stiff.
