Prep Time:

Cook Time:

1 hour

Makes:

4 servings

Ingredients

1 sheet (12 x 18-inch) H-E-B Parchment Paper

1/2 c. H-E-B Real Egg Whites

1/8 tsp. each: salt and cream of tartar

1/4 c. H-E-B Sugar

1/3 c. 0 calorie sweetener

1/2 c. H-E-B Heavy Whipping Cream

2/3 c. semi sweet chocolate chips

1/2 c. 0 fat greek yogurt

2 Tbsp. sweetener

1 1/3 c. fresh strawberries or raspberries

Instructions


Heat oven to 250°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Draw 4 circles, 4-inches in diameter, on parchment paper; set aside.

Place egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar in large mixer bowl; beat on high speed 30 seconds until foamy. While continuing to beat on high speed, add sugar 1 tablespoon at a time. Add sugar replacement 1 tablespoon at a time until egg whites have high peaks. Do not over beat or mixture will separate.

Divide whipped egg whites among the 4 circles and spread with back of large spoon. Make a well in center of each so shell bakes evenly. Bake on center oven rack 1 hour or until they become crisp. Turn oven off , leave meringue shells in oven to cool and crisp slowly.

Chocolate Ganache: Place heavy cream in 2-cup microwave safe bowl, microwave on high power 1 minute. Add chocolate chips, let set without stirring 1 minute. Stir mixture until chocolate sauce forms. Cool until it thickens enough to drizzle; set aside.

Assemble tortes just before serving: combine yogurt and sweetener in small bowl using wire whip; set aside. Arrange shells on 4 plates; top with 1/3 cup strawberries or raspberries, 2 tablespoons sweetened yogurt and drizzle with 1 tablespoon chocolate ganache. Serve immediately. Save remaining chocolate ganache for another use.
