A show-stopping dessert that beautifully embraces the flavors of winter, this Chocolate Peppermint Pavlova Wreath is a festive centerpiece filled with rich chocolate and peppermint cream.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large egg whites, room temperature
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
  • ½ cup dark chocolate, melted
  • Chocolate curls or sticks
  • Crushed peppermint candy or candy canes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and draw a 10-inch circle as a guide.
  2. Whip the egg whites on medium speed until foamy, then gradually add the sugar while increasing the speed to high, beating until stiff peaks form, about 6-8 minutes.
  3. Fold in the cornstarch, vinegar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract gently to keep the mixture airy.
  4. Spoon the meringue onto the parchment in a wreath shape using the circle as a guide, creating a well in the center.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, then leave the pavlova inside to cool completely with the oven door slightly ajar.
  6. Prepare the filling by whipping the heavy cream with powdered sugar and peppermint extract until soft peaks form.
  7. Assemble the wreath by spooning the whipped cream into the well of the cooled pavlova.
  8. Decorate with melted chocolate, chocolate curls, and crushed peppermint candy for a festive finish.

Notes

If you have leftovers, store the pavlova in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days, but keep the whipped cream refrigerated and assemble just before serving.
