Servings

4

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups assorted frozen berries, such as strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, defrosted and drained
  • 4 teaspoons fruit liquer
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cups vanilla custard (or pudding)
  • 1/2 cup turbinado sugar (Sugar in the Raw)

Directions

  1. Preheat broiler.
  2. Divide berries evenly among 4 7-ounce ramekins.
  3. In a small bowl mix together liqueur, heavy cream and custard, and spoon over berries.
  4. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons sugar over each serving.
  5. Broil 2=4 minutes until sugar melts and crystallizes, turning brown and bubbly. Cool slightly, so the sugar top will harden and serve warm.

Tips:

The essence of this dessert is the soft creamy fruit center and the crunchy sugar top. So for those watching calories or just looking for a more health conscious dessert choice you can completely omit the heavy cream and fruit liqueur. Even a sugar free and/or fat free pudding works perfectly as a substitution for the custard or full fat pudding. And then you’ll have a healthful, light, creamy and dare I say “better” option for dessert. Fresh berries are also a delicious alternative to the frozen fruit just remember to wash, clean and check them for any infestation.
