How to Make Berry Angel Whip

  1. Place mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for at least 15 minutes to chill.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of mixed berries (fresh or frozen) and 1 cup granulated sugar.
  3. Cook over medium heat, mashing berries gently with a potato masher or fork and stirring frequently, until berries release their juices and begin to soften (about 5-7 minutes).
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth. Add this mixture to the saucepan with the berries.
  5. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and becomes clear and glossy (about 1-2 minutes).
  6. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  7. Remove the chilled bowl and beaters from the freezer.
  8. Add 4 large egg whites and ¾ cup granulated sugar to the chilled bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form (about 5-7 minutes).
  9. Gently fold in the cooled berry compote using a rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the meringue.
  10. Spoon or pipe the Berry Angel Whip over slices of angel food or pound cake.
  11. Serve immediately and enjoy!
