Quick, Easy, Completely Satisfying Treat
Hi Everyone :)
This is my favorite sweet treat. It had to be quick 'cos when I am craving sweets it is not wise to hang around in the kitchen or get into the baking/cooking mood. Sweetener (2-3) Double Cream (1 Tbsp) Strawberries (1-2) Nut Flour (1-2 teasp) Nuts (2-6) On to a saucer 2-3 sweeteners pills (four if I feel like VERY SWEET sweet and/or don't have berries); a tablespoon of double cream. Crush the sweeteners with a fork/spoon and mix with the cream so the sweetness is evenly spread. Crush one or two fresh ripe strawberries into the cream; sprinkle 1-2 tsp. nut flour (I make small batches of my own in the coffee grinder with sesame, sunflower, pumpkin and whatever else); a few whole nuts (crunch factor). Mix it all up and take a good five minutes to savour every last spoonful of it - Lick the plate clean ! :p ;) Once I've had that I don't get hungry for hours. Take care |
fiona this sounds terrific! i'll have to try it. i keep meaning to buy another coffed grinder just for nuts!
any idea how the tablets convert to powder sweetener? i know doreen posted it somewhere, but i can't seem to find it. |
I think it is absolutely yummy.
I am not 100% certain but I believe 1 sweetener pill is equivalent to 1 teaspoon of sugar. So I expect 1 teaspoon of sweetener powder. Just experiment. Add two and if you feel you need to have it sweeter next time add more. I haven't found Stavia in UK so I find it easier to stick to the pills. The carb content of the powders available here is not very clear. You'll love it ! :D Take care. |
cream
Is double cream the same as heavy or whipping cream?
|
I believe what we call double cream here is what you call heavy cream over the pond.
Double cream is often used for whipping but we also have a different cream which is Whipping cream. Take care |
