A really yummy and easy to make dessert, made with Mello Mallo's Chai Tea flavour handcrafted marshmallows. Don't be put off with the time it takes to make - it's no-bake, so most of the time is spent with it just chillin' in the fridge, so you can be off doing the other things that you do and come back to it later ready to serve.

Description

A really yummy and easy to make dessert, made with Mello Mallo's Chai Tea flavour handcrafted marshmallows. Don't be put off with the time it takes to make - it's no-bake, so most of the time is spent with it just chillin' in the fridge, so you can be off doing the other things that you do and come back to it later ready to serve.

Instructions

  1. Small 111787 2f2015 11 01 140122 2015 10 31%2b17.05.34

    Begin with crushing the biscuits. I broke mine up into a large bowl then used the end of a rolling-pin to crush them up - but you can used whatever method you prefer. Also line the tin.

  2. Melt the butter in a pan and the chocolate in a separate bowl.

  3. Small 111787 2f2015 11 01 142023 collage 20151101141300469 20151101141332002

    Add the crushed biscuits to the butter and stir until evenly coated. Then add the melted chocolate and mix until fully combined.

  4. Small 111787 2f2015 11 01 142057 2015 10 31%2b17.28.34

    Empty into the lined tin and gently press it all down evenly. Place into the fridge to chill. The base is done!

  5. Small 111787 2f2015 11 01 142204 2015 10 31%2b18.03.28

    Cut the marshmallows into smaller pieces and place in a pan with the milk over a low heat. Stir it round and when the marshmallows have started to melt, turn off the heat but leave the pan on the hob. Continue to stir until there are no lumps left, then take off the hob onto a cooller surface.

  6. Small 111787 2f2015 11 01 143154 2015 10 31%2b18.14.46

    In a large bowl whisk the double cream until nice and thick.

    Give the marshmallow in the pan a quick mix until light and foamy, then slowly add it to the double cream while constantly whisking. Once all the marshmallow is in, whisk a little more until you have a lovely thick, smooth (and wonderfully smelling) cream.

  8. Small 111787 2f2015 11 01 144520 2015 10 31%2b18.23.50

    Take your base out of the fridge and pour the cream evenly over it. Use a cinnamon sugar grinder to decorate the top, or just gently sprinkle on some cinnamon if you have no grinder. Place back into the fridge for at least 2 hours.

    When set, remove from the tin and onto a serving plate. Slice and serve however you see fit. Enjoy!
