Mini Gelato Baked Alaska is a real show stopper. Baked brownies in 3″ fluted springform tart pan filled with raspberry jam, pistachio and raspberry gelato frozen domes. Fresh made marshmallow topping covers the exterior of the domes then lightly toasted with kitchen torch. Serve this dessert immediately for best results. Recipe is inspired by Pie Style- Helen Nugent.
1–18.2 ounce package Dark Chocolate Fudge Brownie Mix- tested Duncan Hines
1 large egg
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
6 teaspoons raspberry seedless jam or 6 teaspoons chocolate ganache
1 cup or 8 ounces each Raspberry and Pistachio Gelato
4 large egg whites, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar, superfine*
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cream of tarter
1/8 teaspoon fine salt
6– Fresh raspberries
1/4 cup pistachios, shelled- optional
Remove one tart at a time from freezer, remove brownie base from tart pan. Remove frozen gelato from mold and place on top of raspberry jam or ganache filled brownie base. With off set spatula, coat gelato with thin layer of Swiss Meringue before piping shells. This helps seal the gelato and brownie.
Piping Shells: Hold filled piping bag fit with tip #6 B vertically and pipe medium shells or as desired. Begin at base of dome around outer edge building up the dome ending with the center top shell. Place tart back in freezer while you repeat piping each tart.
Right before serving, lightly toast the meringues with kitchen or gas propane torch. I used a gas propane torch found at Home Depot. Garnish each mini Alaska with a fresh raspberry right before serving if desired.
Store in Freezer until ready to serve or if you have leftovers.
