DESSERT
Pav-Misu ☕🍰
All the coffee-kick of a tiramisu with the cloud-like lightness of a pavlova. Recipe courtesy of Woolworths.
You’ll need:
- 600mL Woolworths thickened cream
- 500g Woolworths mascarpone
- 1/4 cup icing sugar
- 1 cup espresso coffee, cooled
- 24 savoiardi biscuits
- 80grams Woolworths meringue nests
- 125grams strawberries, halved
- 1 tbs cocoa powder
Method:
Using an electric mixer, beat cream, mascarpone and icing sugar in a large bowl until soft peaks form.
Place coffee in a shallow bowl. Working with 1 biscuit at a time, dip 8 biscuits into coffee, then arrange over base of a 3L rectangular dish (20x30cm base). Top with one-third of the cream mixture, then crumble over 2 meringues. Repeat layers, finishing with cream. Reserve remaining 4 meringues.
Refrigerate, covered, for 4 hours or overnight, or until layers soften.
Break remaining meringues and arrange over top of cream. Top with strawberries. Serve dusted with cocoa powder.
