Ingredients

  • 6 large egg whites
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • Optional: mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C). Line three 8-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
  • In a clean mixing bowl, beat the egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form.
  • Gradually add the granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat the egg whites. Beat until stiff peaks form and the sugar is fully incorporated.
  • Add the white vinegar and vanilla extract to the egg white mixture. Gently fold them in until well combined.
  • Divide the pavlova mixture evenly among the prepared cake pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the pavlova is crisp and dry. Turn off the oven and leave the pavlova layers inside to cool completely.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  • Place one pavlova layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of whipped cream on top, followed by a layer of mixed berries. Repeat with the remaining pavlova layers, whipped cream, and berries.
  • Garnish with mint leaves, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
