Create festive mini black forest pavlovas with marbled chocolate and poached cherries.
Ingredients:
  • 6 Free Range Egg whites
  • 1.25 gm cream of tartar
  • 330g caster sugar
  • 2.50 gm cornflour
  • 50g dark chocolate, melted, cooled slightly
  • 24.00 gm icing sugar mixture, sifted
  • 1 tsp almond essence
  • 500g cherries
  • 75g caster sugar
  • 60ml brandy
  • 1 cinnamon stick or quill
  • 2 whole star anise
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 110g cherry jam
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 100°C while you line a big baking tray with parchment paper.
  • Whisk egg whites and cream of tartar with an electric mixer until firm peaks form in a clean, dry bowl. Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking well after each addition, until the sugar dissolves. Mix in cornflour. Gently fold the mixture twice into melted chocolate until marbled. Spoon 6 equal portions onto the lined tray.
  • Bake the pavlovas for 1 1/4 hours or until they are dry to the touch, then turn off the oven. Let the pavlovas cool completely in the oven with the door slightly open for 1 hour.
  • For the poached cherries, combine cherries, sugar, brandy, wine or apple juice, cinnamon, star anise, and vanilla in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 5 mins until cherries are warm and juices start to come out. Remove cherries with a slotted spoon to a bowl.
  • Combine the cherry jam with the syrup in a saucepan and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and drizzle over the cherries in a bowl. Chill in the fridge.
  • Whip cream, icing sugar, and almond essence in a bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  • Plate the pavlovas elegantly, generously top them with the luscious cream mixture, and then artfully spoon the decadent poached cherries and their syrup over the top. Serve promptly to enjoy at its best.
