Two-Ingredient Caramel Dessert

Continue beating the mixture until it becomes glossy and holds stiff peaks. This means that when you lift the beaters out of the bowl, the egg whites should stand up firmly without collapsing. This meringue will create the light, melt-in-your-mouth texture that makes this dessert so special.
5. Combining the Mixture
With your meringue ready, it’s time to bring the dessert together. Carefully spoon the meringue into the prepared caramel-lined pan. Spread it evenly to ensure that the dessert bakes uniformly. The caramel will begin to soften as it comes into contact with the meringue, creating a luscious, sticky layer at the bottom of the dessert.
6. Baking the Caramel Dessert
The key to achieving a perfect texture in this dessert is gentle, even cooking. Place the caramel and meringue-filled pan into a larger baking dish. Fill the larger dish with water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the pan. This water bath will help regulate the temperature, preventing the dessert from cooking too quickly and ensuring a smooth, crack-free finish.

Preheat your oven to 356°F (180°C) and bake the dessert for approximately 30 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the top is lightly golden and the meringue is set. Be sure to keep an eye on the dessert during the final minutes of baking to avoid overcooking.
7. The Finishing Touches
Once your dessert is baked to perfection, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Cooling helps the caramel and meringue set properly, making it easier to remove from the pan.

To serve, carefully run a knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the dessert. Place a serving plate over the pan, then invert it to release the dessert. The caramel layer should be beautifully displayed on top, creating an elegant presentation.
8. Serving and Enjoying Your Caramel Dessert
This two-ingredient caramel dessert is best enjoyed fresh. The contrast between the soft, airy meringue and the rich, gooey caramel is truly a delight. Whether you serve it as is or with a dollop of whipped cream, this dessert is sure to impress.
