Hawaiian Baked Alaska
Hawaiian Baked Alaska
1 Fresh pineapple
1 Quart of your favorite ice cream, softened
8 egg whites (you can find these in your grocer's dairy case, beside the EggBeaters)
2 Cups Sugar
Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise, leaving the leaves on. Scoop out the 'meat' from the center of the pineapple, leaving a wall of pineapple 1/2-inch thick. Place the scooped out pineapple halves on a platter. Fill the pineapple cavity with the desired flavor of ice cream and place in the freezer until ice cream is frozen again.
To make the meringue, in a chilled bowl, beat the egg whites to a soft peak. Slowly add the sugar to the egg whites.
Remove the pineapple halves from the freezer. Using a pastry bag (or a ziplock bag with the corner cut off) cover the ice cream entirely, creating some type of design. Dust with powdered sugar and brown quickly in a 450
