This is a deceptively simple dessert but it is fantastic;





Two punnets Strawberries


1-2 tblsps brown sugar


Liquer of choice - cointreau is my favourite


300 ml cream





Wash strawberries and slice them into a serving bowl and sprinkle with brown sugar, add lliquer to taste then put in fridge for a couple of hours. Then just before you serve dessert whip the cream until peaks form, fold through the strawberry mixture. You can serve it in individual bowls or just leave it on the table.
If you like Tangy I have a very good Key Lime Pie recipe.





Mix 2 medium size limes with 1 can 14oz condensed milk. Beat in small mixer bowl until combined, stir in lime peel. (1 tsp of grated lime peel.)

Press all three ingredients on 9 in. pan. bake for 6 to 8 minutes. allow 10-15 min. cool time. Add key lime mixture then top with 2 cups frozen whipped topping thawed. Top it fancy with slices of lime.
