Preparation of Chocolate Meringue
Preparing the chocolate meringue cup is easier done than said.
In fact, just whip the cold fresh cream from the fridge together with the sugar until it becomes beautifully whipped and firm.
Place it in a pastry bag and set aside.
Coarsely crumble the meringues and melt the dark or milk chocolate in a bain-marie, or 1 minute in the microwave, keeping an eye on the temperature, it should not exceed 113/122°F.
Assemble the meringue cup by placing a layer of meringue crumbs at the bottom of the glasses, cover with the whipped cream distributing it well.
Pour a little freshly melted chocolate and continue with another layer of meringue, whipped cream and more chocolate up to the rim of the glass.
You can store the chocolate meringue in the freezer for up to 10 days or more, in the fridge I recommend keeping them there very little because the meringue absorbs moisture and loses its crunch.

You can also prepare the chocolate meringue in a single mold, perhaps with a springform pan, then remove the ring and cut into portions as if it were a normal meringue cake.
You can further enrich the meringue with fresh fruit pieces placed together with the whipped cream.
