4 egg whites
¼ t cream of tartar
¼ t vanilla
1/8 t salt
1 C sugar
½ C finely chopped roasted peanuts

Sauce:
1/3 C sugar
1/3 C water
1/3 C peanut butter
1/3 C Nutella

Beat the egg whites and the next 3 ingredients in a mixing bowl on medium speed until soft peaks form.  Gradually beat in sugar on high speed until stiff peaks form.  Fold in the peanuts.  Shape with a spoon or pipe onto parchment lined baking sheet.  Bake at 250 degrees for 1 hour or until set and dry.

For the sauce, combine all in a small saucepan, heat until sugar is dissolved.  Drizzle over ice cream on top of meringues.  You’ll find lots of other uses!
