BISCUIT
TORTINI RECIPE
Biscuit Tortini is a special
thing to make for the family. My children and grand children
all come to nanna and poppys for a special meal once a month
and after the meal we all sit around eating Biscuit Tortini
it makes a wonderful ending to a family meal.
Biscuit
Tortini Ingredients
3 egg whites
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
a pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups cream
3/4 tsp vanilla essence
3/4 cup ground almonds
1 1/2 tsp almond essence
Biscuit
Tortini Method
Take the
eggs out of the refrigerator and separate the whites and allow
them to stand in a bowl at room temperature for about an hour.
Place the sugar and water in a saucepan and stir over medium
heat until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and
boil uncovered until the syrup spins a fine thread when dropped
from
a spoon. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff
peaks form then pour the hot syrup in a thin stream over them
beating constantly until the mixture forms very thick peaks
when the beaters are raised. Cover the mixture and refrigerate
for 30 minutes. Combine the almond essence and the ground
almonds, mixing well.
Whip the cream and flavour with the vanilla and fold into
the egg white mixture blending evenly. Spoon into paper lined
patty tins and sprinkle the top of each Biscuit Tortini with
a little grated chocolate and a cherry. Freeze
until firm and then enjoy.
