Step 1

Preheat the oven to 140°C/275°F/Gas Mark 1 and draw a 25cm circle on a piece of baking parchment. Cut the circle out and place it on a baking tray.

Step 2

Whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually whisk in the Tate & Lyle Caster Sugar, a little at a time, until the mixture is glossy. Carefully stir in the cornflour, vinegar, cocoa powder and chocolate and spoon the meringue onto the parchment circle.

Step 3

Bake the meringue in the oven for 90 minutes, then remove and leave to cool on the baking tray.

Step 4

When you are ready to serve and the meringue is completely cool, whip the double cream and Tate & Lyle Icing Sugar together with the alcohol. Spread over the pavlova base and cover with the fresh strawberries.

Step 5

Sprinkle with Tate & Lyle Icing Sugar and serve!
