cheesecake
easy preperation, but effective end result, can be assembled in a glass as individual dessert or on a platter or slate or board as a deconstructed dessert.
Ingredients
Method
CREAM MIX
beat (A) until smooth and well combined, mix in (C), then fold in (B). chill and set aside.
TOPPING
simmer together until a compote is achieved, and cool for use.
BASE
crush biscuits so there are crumbs of varying sizes for texture.
ASSEMBLY
if using the glasses, sprinkle a few crumbs in first, then use an ice cream scoop to add a ball of the cream mix, then a spoonful of the compote. repeat the biscuit, cream and compote.
if using a slate, present all the components together in a deconstructed manor, garnishing with whole berries, fruit leathers or crisps as you wish.
