How to Make Chocolate Orange Pavlova
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large, clean bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Gradually add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, beating until glossy and stiff peaks persist.
- Gently fold in cornstarch and vinegar.
- Spoon the meringue onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a large circle or individual nests. Create a well in the center of the meringue.
- Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until crisp and dry. Turn off the oven and leave the meringue inside with the door slightly ajar to cool completely.
- While the meringue bakes, prepare the orange curd: Combine orange juice, zest, sugar, cornstarch, and margarine in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened.
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
- For the chocolate ganache, heat heavy cream in a saucepan until it just begins to simmer. Pour over chopped chocolate and let stand for a few minutes.
- Whisk until smooth and glossy.
- Once the meringue is completely cool, fill the well with the orange curd and top with the chocolate ganache. Serve immediately or chill for later.
