Recipes: Easy Baked Alaska

Ingredients:

• Jam swiss roll
• Vanilla or strawberry pint brick
• 3 egg whites
• 150g caster sugar

Cut the swiss roll into slices 1inch thick. Arrange the slices into a rectangular shape, pushing together firmly so that there are no gaps. Remove the pint brick from its wrapper and place on top of the swiss roll slices. Preheat oven to 230°C. Whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks, slowly whisk in the sugar. Spoon or pipe the meringue onto the ice cream and sponge to cover it completely. Bake in the oven for 3–5 minutes until the meringue is golden. Serve immediately.
