This recipe was given to me in the mid 1950s by a Swedish friend called Lillian. They are simple to make and quite tasty, nice to serve with coffee after dinner.

Ingredients

  • 100 ml. egg white (make sure no yellow is mixed at all)

  • 100 ml. cup full of castor (ground) sugar

  • 4 gm. gelatine

  • Few drops of vanilla essence

  • 2 tbs. desiccated coconut

  • 2 tbs. chocolate powder (Cocoa)*

Instructions

  1. Place egg white and sugar in a large bowl and whip until stiff (it stays in the bowl when the bowl is turned up-side-down).

  2. Dissolve gelatine in 1 tsp. of water, according to instructions on the packet.

  3. Add and mix

  4. essence and gelatine to beaten egg white.

  5. Pour in a flat tray, like a Swiss roll tray, and leave it in the fridge to set.

  6. Cut into small diamond shapes.

  7. *You can use other types of chocolate granules/shavings to cover the squares. Do not heat them or they will melt.

  8. Warm coconut and chocolate powder very lightly.

  9. Roll the diamonds in it and put on a serving dish.
