Lemon Meringue Bites
I am a novel convert for the lilliputian pre-made phyllo cups made past times Athens (found inward the frozen foods section). I bring constitute many sugariness and savory uses for the lilliputian fourth dimension savers.
These sugariness lilliputian beauties went together inward (literally) minutes, cheers to the phyllo cups.
This filling recipe volition create total 2 packages of phyllo cups too since they are thus small, they chill chop-chop too volition live laid to serve inward brusque order. Two packages sounds similar a lot of lemon pies, but it actually isn't (the filling recipe was originally for an 8" pie). Hubby ate 4 of these later a big meal, thus maintain that inward mind.
2 packages of phyllo cups
LEMON FILLING
1 loving cup white sugar
¼ loving cup corn starch
1 loving cup water
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 loving cup fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon fresh lemon zest
2 drops yellowish nutrient color (optional)
MERINGUE TOPPING
2 egg whites
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
¼ loving cup white sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
For filling, mix sugar, cornstarch too H2O inward a heavy bottomed sauce pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens too comes to a boil; boil too stir for 1 minute. Stir one-half of this mixture into the beaten egg yolks (whisking similar crazy to maintain the mixture moving). After good mixed, pour the whole matter dorsum into the master copy pan too boil (and stir) for 1 to a greater extent than minute. Remove from oestrus too stir inward the lemon juice, lemon zest too butter. Spoon hot lemon mixture into phyllo cups.
For the meringue topping, shell (with electrical mixer) the egg whites too cream of tartar until foamy too thus sprinkle inward the sugar, a lilliputian at a time, piece yous are beating; add together the vanilla too conk on to shell until rigid peaks shape when yous elevator the beaters out of the bowl.
Top the hot lemon filling alongside a spoonful of meringue. Bake inward a 400F oven for nigh 10 minutes or until the meringue becomes golden too shiny (watch carefully). Cool on the counter until they are room temperature THEN put them inward the refrigerator to chill. NOTE: Be careful when yous dissever the eggs; fifty-fifty simply a speck of yolk inward the egg whites volition terminate them from whipping correctly. Also, brand certain yous produce NOT whip the egg whites inward anything plastic. Any traces of grease or stone oil inward the bowl or on the beaters volition terminate your egg whites from whipping properly.
Thank yous all for your good wishes, regarding our truthful cat Tabitha. She is walking approximately today too fifty-fifty has constitute her kitty vocalization again!! Thanks to lots of "ear licks" from our domestic dog Chloe, Tabitha is good on her agency to a total recovery.
