Ingredients

115g caster sugar

100g icing sugar

4 large egg whites

2 level tbsp cocoa powder

1 tsp white wine vinegar

50g Asda milk chocolate,chopped, plus 50g for the topping

300ml whipping cream

4 bananas, sliced

3 tbsp Askeys Treat Toffee Ice Cream Sauce

25g hazelnuts, toasted and chopped

Method

1
Pre-heat the oven to 150C/130C Fan/Gas 2. Line a tray with baking paper.
2
Mix the icing and caster sugars and set aside. Put the egg whites in a large, clean bowl and whisk until foamy. Increase speed and whisk to form stiff peaks.
3
Add the sugars a spoonful at a time, whisking until stiff. Sift on the cocoa. Add the vinegar and 50g chopped chocolate and fold in gently.
4
Put on the tray and spread out to a 22cm round. Bake for 1 hour – it’s ready when the paper is easily peeled away. Leave to cool.

Put on a plate. Whip the cream and gently stir in most of the banana. Spread over the meringue, top with the rest of the banana, toffee sauce, the chopped chocolate and nuts.
