S’mores Slice
Base
Chocolate
Marshmallow
Step 1
Pre-heat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Line an 18 x 27cm slice tray with baking paper, extending beyond the tray. Combine flour, sugar and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Add butter and mix until well combined. Press into the prepared tray and bake for 20 minutes. Allow to cool.
Step 2
Place chocolate and cream in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of gently simmering water, stirring regularly until chocolate has melted. Pour chocolate mixture over the biscuit base in the slice tray and refrigerate until set, approximately 1 hour.
Step 3
For the marshmallow, place the ¼ cup of water in a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatine over it, set aside. Combine the sugar with the 1 ½ tablespoons of water in a small saucepan. Bring to the boil, ensuring all sugar has dissolved. Continue on a simmer for approx. 8-10 minutes, or until it has reached 115°C. Remove from heat and stir in the gelatine mixture.
Step 4
Meanwhile, beat egg white in the bowl of an electric mixer, until firm peaks form. Gradually add the sugar mixture in a steady stream until all incorporated. Continue mixing for approximately 10 minutes until mixture is thick and glossy and the bowl feels cool.
Step 5
Spread the marshmallow mixture over the chocolate layer and then using a blow torch, torch the marshmallow until golden. If you don’t have a blow torch, place under a pre-heated grill until golden.
Slice will keep in an airtight container for up to a week in the refrigerator.
