Chocolate mousse.

SavvyMaria · 29/07/2023 09:06

Mayonnaise?

YorkieTheRabbit · 29/07/2023 09:08

Custard

Lemon curd?

TheFlis12345 · 29/07/2023 09:08

Make ice cream?

WashableVelvet · 29/07/2023 09:09

Salad dressing, carbonara. But mostly +1 for lemon curd

MonsterCalling · 29/07/2023 09:12

Pasta.
Mayonnaise.
Hollandaise.

Otherwise they will happily freeze.

A Martha Stewart one.

Creme Brûlée.

Sparkletastic · 29/07/2023 19:32

Deffo custard

AuntyMabelandPippin · 29/07/2023 19:55

Yes, custard! Then freeze it.

Callmesleepy · 29/07/2023 20:19

Creme brulee. Can't believe you even need to ask! Creme brulee and meringue are like the cooking equivalent of Mickey and Minnie, French and Saunders, Mario and Luigi... You can have one without the other but really why would you ever want to?

Exasperatednow · 29/07/2023 20:25

Chocolate pots or icecream

mildlydispeptic · 29/07/2023 20:28

Lemon curd and mayonnaise, or aïoli.

khakitrousers · 29/07/2023 20:31

Custard tart.

mildlydispeptic · 29/07/2023 20:39

Ice cream also a great idea.

Straycats · 29/07/2023 20:42

Eggnog-simply yummy and naughty.😊

Tiramisu

FinallyHere · 29/07/2023 21:34

If you can scare up a good few more eggs, this is totally worth it.

Zabaglione... egg yolks, sugar & marsala.

RosesAndHellebores · 29/07/2023 21:44

Mayo
Custard (trifle)
Hollandaise
Or just a richer portion of scrambled eggs or Omelette

Wherethewildthymeblows · 29/07/2023 21:48

Tiramisu uses egg yolks only. When I make it, I always have to make meringues afterwards to use up the egg whites.
