Berry Brandy Cream Palate Cleanser Or Dessert Recipes

BERRY & BRANDY CREAM PALATE CLEANSER (OR DESSERT)

Steps:

• In a blender, combine 1st 6 ingredients and blend until berries are fully pureed and mixture is creamy.
• Gently fold in 2 tbsp of chopped pecans and divide mixture among 8 small serving glasses approximately 4 ounces in size.
• Top each serving with a few pieces of the remaining 1 tbsp of chopped pecans and chill for at least 1 hour or until ready to serve.
• NOTES: The yield is 8 3-oz servings as a palate cleanser after a savory course of an elegant meal. As a light dessert, I suggest 6 4-0z servings w/a sml berry, scattered choc shavings, a mint or a cookie to dress it up.

SWEET BLACKBERRY AND BRANDY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the blackberries, sugar, and brandy into a saucepan, and place over medium heat. Slowly bring to a simmer, and cook until the blackberries have softened, about 10 minutes. Dissolve the cornstarch in the water, and stir into the simmering berries. Continue cooking and stirring until the sauce has thickened and reached your desired consistency, about 10 minutes.

ECO-FRIENDLY CREAM CLEANSER

Steps:

• Mix the powders with enough liquid soap to make a thick, creamy paste.
• Use as you would any cream cleanser (SoftScrub).
