For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of pisco (Peruvian brandy) to the dulce de leche base during cooking.
The key to a stable meringue is ensuring your bowl and beaters are completely clean and free of any grease.
Feel free to adjust the amount of cinnamon to your liking. A pinch of cocoa powder can also be added for a delightful twist.
