Here is a desert to make you sick.

Last weekend I had some friends around for dinner. You can find the pictures on minutia. To complete the meal I created a desert I thought of earlier in the day. It was incredibly rich and oh so very delicious.

1. Start of with a bowl and place a piece of defrosted puff pastry in it (as much butter as you like).
2. Pop in the oven which is cooking along at 230 degrees.
3. Brown and try not to burn the puff pastry
4. Add blueberries and strawberries. It is these berries that make the dish good for you.
5. Add ice cream. Lots. I used Crème brûlée flavour which is essentially sugar flavoured ice cream.
6. Coat with rich caramel source (the method to which is coming up).
7. Add flaked almonds
8. Serve with a glass of your favourite muscat.

The caramel source is an old Women’s Weekly recipe.

• 125g of butter
• 2 cups lightly packed brown sugar
• 3/4 cup of glucose syrup (it is so much fun try to get this sticky crap in a cup)
• 1 cup cream

To prepare:

1. Over the stove put the butter, sugar and glucose syrup into a pot and heat until the sugar is melted.
2. Bring to boil for 5 minutes
3. Reduce heat and allow bubbles to subside. At this point you can shove it in the fridge until later.
4. Add cream, stiring constantly.
5. Serve hot.

Enjoy!
