Steps to Make Strawberry and Kiwi Creamy Dessert
Things you’ll need:
- Strawberries – 4 or 5
- Kiwi – 1
- Green apple – ½ of an apple
- Pomegranate – 2 tablespoons of arils
- Powdered sugar – ½ cup
- Heavy cream – 1 cup
- Sweet cookie biscuits – 4 or 5
Step 1. Whip cream
- Pour 1 cup of heavy cream into a large bowl
- Add ½ cup of powdered sugar.
- Whisk it thoroughly until it has a smooth consistency.
Set it aside for the time being. You can adjust the cream-to-sugar ratio depending upon your preference.
Step 2. Make kiwi puree
- Peel the skin off 1 kiwi.
- Cut it into small pieces and mash them into a puree.
You can use more than 1 kiwi, if you like.
Step 3. Make strawberry puree
- Cut the tops off 4 or 5 strawberries, put them in a bowl.
- Mash them into a puree.
If the strawberries are not very sweet, add a spoonful of powdered sugar to the puree and mix it in thoroughly.
Step 4. Break biscuits into pieces
Break up 4 or 5 crunchy, sweet cookie biscuits into small pieces.
Step 5. Prepare a biscuit and cream layer
Begin layering the ingredients in a tall, clear wine glass. The presentation of this dessert resembles the classic parfait.
- Put the crushed biscuits on the bottom and then put a layer of whipped cream.
While the biscuits will add crunch to the whole recipe, the cream will surely enhance the taste.
Step 6. Add strawberry and cream layer
New, follow the creamy layer with a thick layer of strawberry puree, then another layer of whipped cream.
Step 7. Add kiwi and cream layer
Now add a thick layer of kiwi puree, and then cover that with another layer of whipped cream.
Step 8. Add a layer of green apple pieces
- Cut ½ of a green apple into small pieces.
- Put a layer of the chopped apples on top of the last layer of whipped cream.
As apples have a tendency to turn brown after cutting, it is important to cut them just before adding them to your dessert.
Step 9. Add a layer of strawberry puree and cream
Cover the chopped apples with a thick layer of strawberry puree and add the final layer of whipped cream.
Step 10. Garnish with pomegranate arils
Finally, sprinkle some pomegranate arils over the last layer of whipped cream as a finishing touch and your dessert is ready to eat.
You can chill the dessert in the refrigerator for up to 30 minutes before serving.
Additional Tips:
- You can puree the strawberries and kiwi separately in a blender. Strawberry and kiwi goes amazingly well together.
- You can replace the kiwi with mango if you like.
- Use heavy cream only for best results.
- You can also add chopped nuts to the whipped cream to add a nutty flavor.
- You can even garnish with shredded coconut and mint sprigs.
