Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 212°F (100°C) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whip egg whites and 1¾ cups sugar on low until small bubbles form. Then increase speed for 3-5 minutes until frothy and glossy.
  3. Add cornstarch and vinegar while continuing to whip. Gradually mix in the remaining sugar until you achieve stiff peaks, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Gently fold in melted dark chocolate without overmixing to create swirls.
  5. Spoon meringue onto baking trays to form rounds with a dip in the center and bake for about 2 hours.
  6. Prepare the caramel sauce by melting sugar until golden, then add butter and cream, mixing until smooth.
  7. Once meringues are cooled, whip cream and dollop onto each meringue. Drizzle with caramel and sprinkle with peanuts.
