This recipe is amazing, it tastes great, I made it in Cooking class and the teacher tasted it and said it was the best walnut meringue she'd ever tasted. THANKS xx
I have tried this recipe, it is nice. I have my own 'secret recipe' and it is better. The reaction to my recipe was much better. Please do not take offense. I do like this and I will use it again.
