Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter texture, ensure your egg whites are beaten until stiff peaks form. If you prefer, you can substitute granulated sugar with powdered sugar for a smoother consistency. For flavor variations, consider using different extracts like almond or coconut, or even a splash of liqueur. This sauce pairs beautifully with Rich Peach Cobbler or Lemon Cake Pie Or Sponge.
