MERINGUE: Set oven @ 325┬║F/165┬║C.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Trace 2 8"
circles on paper, and flip paper over on sheet.
In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites using an electric
mixer until peaks form that curl slightly, and beat in
sugar, ┬╝ cup at a time, until meringue is stiff and
shiny. Gently fold cocoa, vinegar, salt and chocolate
into egg whites.
Secure parchment to baking sheet with a dab of meringue.
Mound half of meringue within 1 circle, smoothing sides
and top with a spatula; repeat with second circle.
Transfer meringues to oven, and decrease temperature to
300┬║F/150┬║C. Bake for 75 minutes, until meringue is
crisp but has very slight give in middle. Turn oven off,
and let meringues cool in oven with door ajar.
CHERRY FLAMBE; Soak cherries in rum about 45 minutes.
Remove 1 1/2 cups of cherries from rum, and rough chop.
Set aside. Leave remaining cherries soaking in rum.
In a cold mixing bowl, whip together heavy cream, sugar
and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Invert 1 meringue
onto a large platter; remove parchment. Slather half of
whipped cream on meringue, and scatter with chopped
cherries. Top with second meringue.
