scratch lemon meringue

My boss' birthday was last week and she had requested lemon meringues I made a while ago. She made the request about four months in advance! I had lots of fun making these little meringues. Last time I made them, they were in cupcake form but I'm so addicted to using my new muffintop pan that I wanted to try mini muffintop lemon meringues. They are just like lemon meringue pie, but with cake instead of pie crust. I wish I would have made one for myself!
