Creamy Peanut
Butter Tart
 
Ingredients:
  • 1/4 cup of sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of gelatine
  • 2 separated eggs
  • Vanilla essence
  • A good sprinkling of nutmeg
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1/2 cup of peanut paste
  • 1 tablespoon of sugar
  • 1/3 cup of chilled evaporated milk
  • 1 pastry case

Method:

  • Mix the sugar, gelatine, nutmeg and salt together
  • Add the peanut paste, then slowly stir water into the mix and stir until smooth
  • Lightly beat the egg yolks and stir them into the mix, then
  • Add the gelatine and cook over gently simmering water until the mix has thickened slightly
  • Stir in the vanilla essence and chill, stirring occasionally, until syrupy
  • Whip the evaporated milk until thick and fold in
  • Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, then gradually beat in the rest of the sugar. Continue beating the egg-sugar mix until it's stiff, then fold this into the tart mixture too
  • Turn the final mix into a pastry case and chill

Tip: Don't have any peanut paste handy? You can whip some up by putting some raw peanuts in a blender, adding a little peanut oil and blending to the desired consistency. An old-fashioned mincer (or even a mortar and pestle) will also produce a similar result. Alternately, you can use peanut butter.
