This dessert is a random recipe I came up with one fine day, while pondering on the contents of my fridge and pantry. I wanted to make something indulgent, but was too lazy to go marketing. And my no bake tart is born of such procrastination. And boy does it score.
This recipe is perfect for a valentine's day treat. Or any other day you want to stir up some romance. And the best part is, you don't have to make it before hand (ideally I would recommend you do, but its not necessary). And with just 5 ingredients, its way too simple to not try at home.
Ingredients:
200gms digestive biscuits (you can use any biscuit as long as its not salty and crumbs well)
75gms melted butter
200ml whipping cream
2 cups strawberry
50gms castor sugar
Strawberry Squash to garnish (optional)
Crumb the biscuits with melted butter in a food processor. Add to bottom of the pan and pat down. The aim is to form a crust. Pop it in the fridge to set.
While that is setting, whip the cream till thick and twice its volume. Gently fold in the sugar. Chop up the strawberry according to preference. Add the cream on top of the biscuit base and then top up with the strawberries. Set in the fridge to chill and set. Drizzle in the syrup before serving.
Tip: I know I called this dessert no bake, but you can also bake the crust in the oven for 10mins to really crisp up. You can also substitute the whipped cream with cream cheese.
