INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 cups egg whites (10-12 large), room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar, divided (superfine sugar is ideal)
1 cup sifted cake flour

1 tsp cream of tartar
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp almond extract

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 325F.
In a small bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup sugar and the cake flour. Set aside.
Place egg whites in a large bowl and beat until frothy, then the add cream of tartar and salt. Beat at medium speed until cream of tartar is fully incorporated, then begin to add the remaining 3/4 cup of sugar a few tablespoons at a time. When sugar has been added, beat egg whites to soft peaks (for guidelines on beating egg whites, click here). Once you have soft peaks, add the vanilla and almond extracts and beat for a few seconds to incorporate.
