Mom’s meringue dessert sounds delicious-—two or three sheets of meringue layered w/ sweetened whipped cream and crushed Heath or Skor candy bars.

It is I don't want to die for it lol but almost. It's best to keep in the fridge overnight covered with something. You can be creative about the shape of the layers.

My mom never stabilized whip cream but I set aside one package of Jello instant vanilla pudding and stir about 2 level tablespoons here's a link:

I also beat cornstarch into egg whites for the top of meringue pies and along with other precautions they don't weep.

A lot of sites say cook it with water and whatever and cool it. Don't have to do that.

"A tiny bit of cornstarch (such as in the recipe here) whipped with the sugar into the meringue traps some of this moisture and reduces beading."

I use Jello cooked Lemon Pudding and Pie Filling for lemon meringue pies; maybe from scratch are better, dunno, I love the way the pkg kind sets plus it makes a nice thick filling in a 9-inch pie plus it is a heck of a lot easier and faster (if you are careful not to scorch it).
