Knickerbocker Glory for US Holidays (Red White and Blue)
A US (or UK) themed red, white and blue sundae that's perfect for celebrations.
Ingredients
- 6 oz strawberries (reserve a few of the nicest ones for filling and decoration)
- 6 oz blueberries (reserve a few of the nicest ones for filling and decoration)
- 3 Tbsp sugar
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 1 cup vanilla ice cream
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream whipped
- 2 Maraschino cherries
- 2 Cadbury's Flake wafers or a pirouette biscuit
Instructions
- Wash and chop the strawberries, put into a pot with 1 ½ tablespoonfuls of sugar and 1 tsp lemon juice over medium low heat. Stir, and allow to simmer for about 5 minutes then remove from heat. Put into another container to cool completely in the fridge.
- Repeat the steps above with the blueberries, but no need to chop them. You can keep the fruit sauces as is, or purée them.
- When ready to assemble, put some strawberry sauce in the bottom of the parfait glass and top with a small scoop of ice cream.
- Pour on some blueberry sauce (and fresh fruit if you like), and top with another scoop of ice cream.
- Add more strawberry sauce, then 3 small scoops of ice cream. Top with fresh strawberries and blueberries and some more sauce as desired.
- Garnish with a generous amount of freshly whipped cream, and top with a cherry. Add the chocolate or cookie if using.
Notes
- Amounts are not critical. Use the fruits you'd prefer, and mix and match. You can even add nuts.
- Omit any biscuit for a gluten free treat.
