Mini chocolate baked Alaska`s

Serves: 4

2012-10-03

Ingredients

For the meringue

  • 2 egg whites
  • 50g caster sugar
  • Pinch salt

You will also need

  • 2 chocolate muffins (Aunt Mabel’s)
  • 2 tbsp liqueur of your choice
  • 4 chocolate biscuits (Hellema)
  • 4 scoops chocolate ice-cream

Method

For this recipe, it is best to prepare the baked Alaska`s the day before. Place them in the freezer overnight to firm up well before covering them in meringue and baking them. Start this recipe by slicing the muffins into 4 thick slices. Lay out 4 slices onto a baking tray and cover each piece evenly with ½ scoop of chocolate ice-cream. Cover each one with a chocolate biscuit and press down well. Cover each Alaska with the remaining ice-cream and cover with the remaining 4 slices of muffin. Drizzle over the liqueur and place them in the freezer overnight to firm up well. The following day 15 minutes before you wish to serve them prepare the meringue by whipping the egg whites with a pinch of salt to stiff peaks. Add in the sugar, a spoonful at a time, mixing well before each addition. You should end up with a thick glossy meringue. Remove the frozen Alaska`s from the freezer and spoon the meringue mixture into a piping bag. Pipe the meringue all over the Alaska`s, making sure to cover completely. Transfer the tray to the oven and bake for 3-4 minutes (no longer), until the meringue is just golden-brown. Immediately serve the mini baked Alaska`s onto serving plates whilst still hot.                 For this recipe, it is best to prepare the baked Alaska`s the day before.

Alaska’s żgħar taċ-ċikkulata

Ingredients

Għall-meringue:
  • 2 abjad tal-bajd;
  • 50g zokkor fin (caster sugar);
  • niskata melħ
Għandek bżonn ukoll:
  • 2 muffins taċ-ċikkulata (Aunt Mabel’s);
  • 2 mgħaref likur li tiggosta;
  • 4 gallettini taċ-ċikkulata (Hellema);
  • 4 blalen ġelat taċ-ċikkulata

Method

L-aħjar li tlesti din ir-riċetta minn jum qabel. Iffriża l-Alaska’s matul il-lejl biex jagħqdu sew, qabel tiksihom bil-meringue u ddaħħalhom fil-forn. Ibda r-riċetta billi tqatta’ l-muffins f’erba’ biċċiet ħoxnin. Ifrixhom f’dixx u iksi kull biċċa b’nofs ballun ġelat. Poġġi gallettina fil-wiċċ u agħfas ’l isfel. Iksi l-wiċċ bil-ġelat li jkun fadal u poġġi biċċa muffin fil-wiċċ ta’ kull waħda. Ferrex il-likur u ffriżahom għal matul il-lejl biex jagħqdu. L-għada, kwarta qabel tkun se sservihom, lesti l-meringue billi tħabbat l-abjad tal-bajd ma’ niskata melħ sakemm ittella’ l-ixkuma. Żid iz-zokkor, mgħarfa mgħarfa, u ħawwad sew bejn mgħarfa u oħra. Għandu jkollok taħlita magħquda. Oħroġ l-Alaska’s u itfa’ t-taħlita tal-meringue f’piping bag. Iksihom bit-taħlita. Daħħalhom fil-forn għal 3-4 minuti (mhux aktar), sakemm il-wiċċ jibda jiħmar. Poġġihom fil-platti u servihom sħan.
