Frozen Christmas pie: Blend ; pint/1> dl. cranberry sauce with one
8 oz./225 g. can drained penble pieces. Stir into 1 pint/generous
x litre vanilla ice cream. Spoon into a prepared biscuit crumb crust.
Sprinkle with chopped nuts. Freeze.
Desserts
Offer a dessert not quite so rich as well as the traditional Christmas
pudding. Try flaming mincemeat over ice cream—heat prepared
mincemeat with a little orange juice and brown sugar. Warm a little
rum, set alight and pour over the hot mincemeat sauce. Ladle over
ice cream and garnish with toasted almonds.
For an easy freezer dessert, add mincemeat to lightly whipped double
cream, and alternate layers of plain biscuits and the mincemeat cream
in a foil pudding basin. Freeze until required, lift out of the pan, cover
with lightly whipped double cream sweetened with a little castor sugar.
Garnish with holly wreaths made of glacé cherries and angelica.
For the children, make snowballs by rolling ice cream in coconut.
Freeze until required and serve with hot chocolate sauce.
Fruit cake: Instead of icing your Christmas cake, glaze it immediately
after baking with one of the following:
—golden syrup glaze—combine equal amounts of golden syrup and
water. Simmer for a few minutes. Brush over the warm fruit cake.
Decorate with candied fruit and nuts. Brush the glaze over the fruits.
Return to the oven for 10 minutes.
—jelly glaze—brush warm fruit cake with melted redcurrant jelly or
any other favourite jelly. Decorate with candied fruit and nuts. Re-
turn to the oven for 20 minutes.
—honey glaze —brush warm honey over the warm fruit cake. Decorate
with candied fruits and nuts. Brush again with warm honey.
