BERRY BROWNIE PAVLOVA CAKE

• Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water, or in short bursts in the microwave, then set aside to cool a little.

Put the egg whites in the bowl and whisk for a couple of minutes until stiff. Add the sugar, a spoonful at a time, whisking continuously to stiff peaks, then whisk in the cornflour. Use a spoon to dot the meringue all over the top of one of the cakes, then using the back of the spoon, spread it to the edge of the tin, being careful not to disturb the cake mixture underneath. Make nice swirly dips and peaks as you spread.

Place it on top of the cream and berries, and spoon dollops of the remaining cream on top, filling any cracks or dips in the meringue.
