Carla's Christmas kitchen: Marshmallow tart

Carla's Christmas kitchen: Marshmallow tart

One thing I fondly remember about the festive season while growing up is my mother's delicious marshmallow tart!

Marshmallow tart

It's the one thing I couldn't wait to eat and if I had it my way I'd skip lunch and go straight into dessert. It was always the right amount of sweet and sour.

 

This holiday, I'll be spending Christmas with my mother in Cape Town and I'm planning to surprise her by making a marshmallow tart!
