No-cook meringue Christmas tree

This simplified version of our cover star (see p11) uses shop-bought meringues assembled in a tree shape, then decorated. Stack 2 meringue nests, sandwiching them together with whipped cream. Use

36 mini meringues to build a tree shape around the stacked nests, sticking them on using more whipped cream. Decorate with melted white chocolate or white chocolate stars and broken-up peppermint candy canes, if you like, or serve with the berry compote on page 12.
