FESTIVE DESSERT


This is a easy to make desert with left over Xmas pudding, fruit puree and whipped cream with orange zest. I used can cherry in syrup and cranberry sauce but you can use any fruit puree you desire.

INGREDIENTS
  • 4 tbsp Xmas pudding, crumbled
  • 2 tbsp pecan or walnuts, chopped
  • 2-4 Cherry juice or orange juice
  • 1 can of cherry in syrup
  • 2 tbsp cranberry sauce
  • 1 tbsp cherry  liqueur ( optional )
  • 250 ml double cream
  • 4-5 tsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp orange zest
  • cinnamon sugar for sprinkling.
Place Xmas pudding , nuts, cherry juice in a bowl and heat in a microwave to warm it. ( or warm it in a pan on a stove ). Divide this mixture into 2 serving glasses. Drain the cherry and reserve the liquid. Mix cherry with cranberry sauce in a blender and add cherry juice as you need it. Add the liqueur and pour this mixture over the pudding in the serving dish. Whip the cream with orange zest and brown sugar then pour over the cherry sauce. Mix little cinnamon powder with some brown sugar and sprinkle over  the desert. Decorate with pecan nuts just before serving.
