Directions
Beat egg whites (at room temperature) in a small bowl at high speed of an electric mixer until foamy; add cream of tartar and vanilla, beating until soft peaks form.
Spoon meringue mixture into 10 mounds on a baking sheet lined with heavy brown paper. Shape meringue mixture into circles, using the back of a spoon to mound the sides at least ½ inch higher than the centers.
Bake at 225 for 1 hour. Turn oven off, and let meringues cool completely before opening oven door. Transfer meringues to serving plates.
Scoop sherbet into shells; top with Cranberry Sauce, and serve immediately.
