Marmalade Tea Cakes
This is my technical challenge of the weekend. They are chocolate marshmallow tea cakes featuring a shortbread biscuit base, marmalade and coated in dark chocolate. This is the second time I have ever made marshmallow tea cakes and I seem to have had the same issue both times with my marshmallow, that the gelatine has not all dissolved in the egg white mixture. I'm not sure if, on this occasion, the egg mixture did not get hot enough due to my impatience and starting to whisk before the pan of water was boiling, so that would be my tip to try. Regardless of the gelatine issue, the marshmallow mixture was still stiff enough to hold it's shape and tastes moreish. It was also declared that I won the technical challenge with this bake, although I'm not sure the lack of competition makes it the most monumental win ever! Recipe - Makes 6 For the biscuit base: 90g plain flour 65g butter 30g caster sugar 1/2 tbsp milk For the chocolate coating: 120g dark chocolate...
