2 large egg whites (room temperature)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Optional Garnishes:
Fresh berries (e.g., raspberries or strawberries)

Melt the White Chocolate:
Begin by melting the white chocolate. Place the chopped chocolate into a heatproof bowl and gently melt it over a double boiler or in the microwave in short intervals (20 seconds at a time), stirring each time until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
Whip the Heavy Cream:
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar (if using) until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, as this could cause the cream to turn buttery.
