A few years ago, as a single guy, I discovered that one the best and easiest crowd pleasers is to produce Baked Alaska at the end of a meal, or a just a surprise addition to few mates getting together for a few drinks. The wow factor is huge, and people who are resolute in 'no dessert for me' quickly change their minds.
The recipe is pretty simple too;
Make a simple sponge
Whisk egg whites in a very clean bowl until it starts turning white, then add sugar
Continue to which until peaks start to form or until you can turn the bowl upside down without the contents falling out (!)
Spoon a generous dollop of vanilla ice cream onto the sponge, cover completely with the egg-white mixture
Blow torch gently until it starts to brown, and serve!
