Meringue Napoleons with Lime Ice Cream and BlackberriesMiki Duisterhof

This recipe yields more meringue squares than you'll need for the ice cream–filled napoleons. The extras can replace any that break — and they also make a delicious snack.

Cooks' notes:

· Meringues (without confectioners sugar) can be made 4 days ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
· Blackberry sauce can be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
