Muscat Beaumes de Venise Sweet Wine

Beaumes is famed for its wine made from the Muscat grape. Rich, sweet and luscious with a touch of white flower on the finish. A delicious and subtle dessert wine. Buy this wine if you like: Sweet dessert wines that are lighter in style.

Description

This is a delicious recipe given to me by my sister-in-law, Gillian.

Method

  1. 1

    Beat egg whites till stiff. Beat in 1/2 the sugar, a spoonful at a time. Fold in the lemon rind, rest of the sugar and the ground almonds. Wet hand in cold water and roll into small balls. Put a split almond on to each ball and put them on a greased tin and bake for about 25 minutes at 325 degrees until pale golden brown.

Chef's Tips

To keep the biscuits fresh, keep them in a tin with a slice of cake.
