Ingredients
Filling
6 egg yolks
1 can condensed milk
1 lemon, zested
1 teaspoon salt
Meringue
10 egg whites
3/4 cup white sugar
Serve
Powdered sugar for garnish
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350° F.
Filling
Combine the yolks, condensed milk, vanilla extract, zest, and one teaspoon of salt. Cook until it thickens while stirring consistently. Set aside to cool.
Meringue
Using the mixer, create the meringue by whipping up the egg whites until frothy. Start adding the sugar. Whip up the meringue until it's shiny with stiff but curved peaks.
Bake and Serve
Transfer the meringue to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet - ensuring the meringue is spread evenly. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
Let the meringue cool before flipping over and spreading the filling. Roll carefully.
