Ingredients:
Directions:
1
Whisk the flour and 2 tablespoons of white sugar together in a small bowl until combined; set aside
2
Whisk together the egg yolks, milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a small saucepan until smooth
3
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat, and stir constantly
4
Once the mixture is warm, whisk in the flour mixture, and continue cooking until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes
5
Whisk constantly as the sauce cooks to keep it from scorching
6
Once thick, keep warm over low heat
7
Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl
8
Gradually add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form
9
Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape
10
Finally, beat in the remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
11
Pour the hot sauce over the egg whites, and gently fold together using a rubber scraper until well incorporated
12
Do not mix vigorously, or the egg whites will deflate
13
Serve warm
