There is something about summer that calls
for fruity, chilled desserts to finish off a meal. Deliciously light,
these desserts are the perfect way to end any summer meal. Revel in
their sweetness !
We think mainly of fruit desserts in the
summer, yet they are excellent at any time of year. In the cooler
months, serve fruits warm - pears poached in red wine make a classic
dish, but try them cooked in cider for a change, or combine them with
apricots and wrap in crisp layers of filo pastry. Pineapple flambé is
quick to rustle up for an impromptu dessert, and the recipe for Hot
Bananas with Rum and Raisins turns an everyday fruit into a exotic
delight, while Clementine's in Cinnamon Caramel is quite the prettiest,
simple dessert. Even in the summer, fruits can be served hot and peaches
are delicious roasted with a chocolate and amaretti stuffing. But this
it is the time of year for cool fruits, and the Chinese or Emerald fruit
salads, or Strawberries in Spiced Graped Jelly, are all fruit desserts
at their refreshing best. |
