- 1 tablespoon honey or sugar (optional, for sweetness)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for flavor)
Instructions

- Beat Egg Whites: In a clean mixing bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Prepare Egg Yolk Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, cream cheese (or Greek yogurt), honey or sugar if using, and vanilla extract until smooth.
