Ingredients

Meringue

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

Filling

  • 2 packages (3 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups whipping cream
  • 2 cups miniature marshmallows

Cherry-Berry Topping

  • 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 cups sliced strawberries or 1 package (16 oz) frozen strawberries, thawed, drained

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 275°F. Grease bottom and sides of 13x9-inch pan. In large bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt with electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Beat in 1 3/4 cups sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time; continue beating until stiff and glossy. Do not underbeat. Spread in pan.
  • 2
    Bake 1 hour. Turn off oven; leave meringue in oven with door closed 12 hours.
  • 3
    In large bowl, mix cream cheese, 1 cup sugar and the vanilla until smooth. In chilled medium bowl, beat whipping cream until stiff. Fold whipped cream and marshmallows into cream cheese mixture. Spread evenly over meringue. Refrigerate at least 12 hours but no longer than 24 hours.

    In medium bowl, mix all topping ingredients until well blended. Spoon over individual servings of dessert. Store in refrigerator.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Raspberries or blueberries can be used instead of the strawberries. Better yet, combine all three!
  • tip 2
    Meringue making is easy, but you can’t rush the process. Be sure to beat egg whites to stiff, glossy peaks, and let dry out in the oven for at least 12 hours (overnight is best).
