Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and prepare a cupcake pan with liners.

In a small bowl, combine crust ingredients and mix well.

Step 3

Press about 1 1/2 tbsp of the mixture into the bottom of each cupcake liner.

Step 6

Add egg, buttermilk and vegetable oil to the dry ingredients and mix well.

Step 7

Add vanilla to boiling water and add to mixture. Mix well.

Step 8

Pour batter into cupcake pan, filling a little more than half way, and bake at 300 degrees for about 17-19 minutes.

Step 9

Step 10

While cupcakes cool, make the meringue frosting. Combine egg whites, sugar, cream of tartar and vanilla extract in a metal, heatproof mixer bowl.

Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved and whites are warm, to between 120 and 140 degrees on a thermometer, about 4-6 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 13

Using the whisk attachment, beat on low speed, gradually increasing to high, until stiff, glossy peaks form, 5 to 7 minutes.
