PIRATE'S PIE

Our high school team is the Pirates so this was a staple for a long time on Friday nights to eat before heading out to a football or basketball game. It is equally as good with leftover chicken or roast beef or ham.

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h15m

Number Of Ingredients 26

200g butter , cubed
300g dark plain chocolate , broken into pieces
200g plain flour
¾ tsp baking powder
¾ tsp bicarbonate of soda
250g light muscovado sugar , plus extra for decoration
3 eggs
200g soured cream
1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
150g sieved apricot jam , warmed
650g brown ready-to-roll icing
18 mini Toblerones
6 malt chocolate balls
6 chocolate caramels (we used Rolos)
8 mini chocolate fingers
100g white marzipan
gold covered chocolate coins
chocolate skull (optional)
250g royal icing made from packet royal icing sugar (use 250g sugar)
blue food colouring
1 chocolate stick (we used Mikado) (optional)
30 x 20cm cake tin
30cm square cake board (preferably blue)
2 sheets black, white or blue paper
2 drinking straws
2 sandwich flags

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease and line a 30x20cm cake tin with baking parchment.
  • Put the butter and 200g of the chocolate into a saucepan and heat gently until melted. Remove from the heat. Sieve the flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda into a large bowl. Mix in the sugar. Beat together the eggs, soured cream and vanilla extract. Pour the chocolate and egg mixtures into the flour and sugar and beat well until smooth. Pour into the prepared tin and bake in the oven for about 40 minutes. Leave until completely cold before cutting and shaping.
  • Cut the cake in half lengthways. Place one complete half on the 30cm cake board. Cut the remaining half into 3 rectangles, 13x10cm, 7x10cm and 10x10cm. Attach the 10x10cm piece to one end of the base cake using a little warm jam. Cut a 'V' shape to represent the prow of the ship. Place the 13x10 piece at the other end of the base cake, attaching with jam. Using jam again attach the 7x10 piece on top of the 13x10 piece to make the upper deck. Slice the back of the ship at a very slight angle.
  • Brush the whole cake with jam. Roll out about 550g of the ready-to-roll icing and cover the cake. Trim the edges at the base and keep any trimmings.
  • Melt the remaining 100g chocolate in the microwave or in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Use melted chocolate to stick the mini Toblerones to the edges of the two decks and to the 'V' shape of the prow. Trim any to fit exactly. Use the chocolate to stick on the chocolate balls for canon balls, finger biscuits stacked up as canons and chocolate caramels for port holes. Using a little of the marzipan, roll out and cut four windows. Make window frames from brown icing trimmings, rolling out to thin sausages to form a cross and sticking with chocolate. Attach to the sides of the ship with chocolate. Poke the chocolate stick out of the front of the prow, if using.
  • Arrange the chocolate coins in a little pile on the cake board, reserving 3 or 4 coins for the top. Roll out the remaining brown icing and cover the coins completely. Brush with melted chocolate and sprinkle with muscovado sugar. Push 3 or 4 coins into the sand along with the chocolate skull if using.
  • Put a little of the royal icing in a bowl. Colour the remainder blue. Spread the icing on the cake board around the ship and the island. Use the white icing to make 'surf' around the edge of the island.
  • Using the remaining marzipan and brown icing, make three barrels. Place one on the deck of the ship and the others in the sea. Cut out sails from the paper and make holes in them so you can push the straws through. Attach the sails to the ship and poke sandwich flags out of the top to finish.

Tips:

  • Use fresh fruit: Fresh fruit will give your pie the best flavor. If you can't find fresh fruit, you can use frozen fruit that has been thawed and drained.
  • Don't overcook the fruit: Overcooked fruit will be mushy and lose its flavor. Cook the fruit just until it is soft and bubbly.
  • Use a good quality pie crust: A good quality pie crust will make all the difference in the taste of your pie. You can make your own pie crust or use a store-bought crust.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust: Overfilling the pie crust will make it difficult to seal the pie and the filling may spill out. Fill the pie crust to about 2/3 full.
  • Seal the pie crust well: To prevent the filling from leaking out, seal the pie crust well. You can do this by crimping the edges of the pie crust with your fingers or using a fork.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven: Baking the pie in a preheated oven will help to ensure that the crust cooks evenly.
  • Let the pie cool before serving: Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will give the filling time to set and the crust time to cool.

Conclusion:

Pirates Pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give Pirates Pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
