Sometimes a biscuit is just a biscuit, and sometimes a biscuit can be turned into an amazing dessert. We've taken the nostalgic custard cream and mashed it up with an eton mess - Two of britains favorites in one dessert! Little custard cream biscuit bowls filled with a custard cream whipped cream topped with fresh strawberries and meringue pieces.

Method

  • Separate the cream and biscuit from the custard creams.
  • Crush the biscuits into crumbs then combine with egg, water and cornstarch to form a dough. Chill for 30 mins.
  • Roll and cut dough into large circles and bake over raised molds for 30 mins at 170ÂșC (Fan Assisted).
  • Mix the biscuit cream with some cream until a paste forms then pour in warmed bloomed gelatin while stirring.
  • Add vanilla extract and the remaining cream then whisk till soft peaks. Care not to over whip.
  • Pipe or spoon into the biscuit bowls then add chopped strawberries and crushed meringue.
  • What do you think of the recipe?
