Now on the ingredients..

Let me just tell you how budget friendly this dessert is. Before making it, I was certain I’d need a long list of ingredients but that is not the truth. All you need is double cream, raspberries, a bit of icing sugar and pistachio cream. It tastes like white chocolate with pistachios to me and it’s quite on the sweet side, hence you barely need any sugar. If you can’t find the Pistachio cream, simply use chopped pistachio nuts and add more sugar.

The making..

Well, there’s not really a secret behind it. It’s one of the easiest thing to make. All you have to do to whisk the double cream until thickens and then gently add the rest of the ingredients, be especially gentle with the raspberries. Freeze for 6 hours or overnight and you’ll get yourself a truly gorgeous dessert that your friends and family will absolutely love, I promise you. I

It’s ideal for BBQ, which i when we enjoyed it. I had made it the previous day and it was a perfect finish for our yummy bbq on a lovely Spring day. It’s the little things that make you happy, isn’t it! For me, is definitely the food and I think the simpler, the tastier. 🙂
