Brazo de Mercedes Cupcakes 

Picture

​INGREDIENTS:
Filling:
  • 10 egg yolks
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 can (14 oz) condensed milk 
  • confectioners/powdered sugar​
Meringue: 
  • 10 egg whites 
  • 1/2 tsp cream of tartar 
  • 3/4 cup sugar ​

​PREPARE THE MERINGUE:
  • Beat the egg whites using an electric mixer. 
  • Add cream of tartar until soft peaks form.
  • Gradually add the sugar. Continue mixing until texture is semi-firm.
  • Line a muffin pan with sturdy cups or baking cupcake liners that can stand on their own. If you use a regular liner, the meringue will shrink. 
  • Pipe the meringue using a star tip. Make sure to leave a hole in the center for the filling later. 
  • Bake at  350 deg F. for 15-18 minutes or until top of meringue turns light to medium brown. (Oven temp varies. Check your product before the set time.)
  • Remove from oven. Set Aside.
