Dieters, look away - this is very rich, and very sinful! Time estimates do not include the time in the fridge. Recipe adapted from Glorian ruoka&viini magazine. Ingredients:
175 g digestive biscuits |
100 g melted butter |
1 tablespoon sugar |
300 g semisweet chocolate, plus |
50 g semisweet chocolate |
400 ml heavy cream |
2 egg yolks |
500 ml chopped marshmallows |
400 ml chopped almonds, unskinned |
200 ml chopped marshmallows |
50 ml chopped almonds, unskinned |
50 g chopped semisweet chocolate |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 175°C Line the bottom of a 22 cm cake tin (with removable bottom) with parchment paper.
2. To make crust: Crush digestive biscuits and mix with melted butter and sugar. Press into the prepared tin. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Allow to cool.
3. To prepare filling: Melt 300 g of chocolate on top of a double boiler. Heat cream in a saucepan to boiling point and remove from heat. Lightly whip egg yolks in a bowl.
