Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Beat the eggs and cream of tartar on low speed, gradually increasing the speed to high, until very foamy. Gradually add the sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. Add the vanilla and cornstarch and beat for another minute.
  • Dump the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and, using the back of a large spoon, spread the mixture out into an 8 or 9 inch circle with an indentation in the middle.
  • Place in the oven and immediately reduce the oven temperature to 200 degrees. Bake until the pavlova is firm and dry, about 90 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • Whip the cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Spread into the center of the pavlova. Top with strawberries and serve.
