Remove from heat; stir in butter. Cool 5 minutes.

Add the remaining 1/3 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. (do not overbeat). Gently stir 1/4 of egg whites into peach mixture, and gently fold in remaining egg white mixture. Gently spoon the mixture into prepared dishes. Sharply tap dishes 2 or 3 times on counter to level.
