Meringue Banana split
So this one was different for me. I have tried it a few different ways. Baked the meringue as a dome and then I piped it on and torched it then I baked the meringue in to a cookie form. I found with my family and my kids their favorite was with the meringue cookies and the yellow chiffon cake. So I loved making this and figuring out what was the best way to work with it and what went over well with my family.
