No easter eggs here, but feeling the need for a decent dinner tonight with pud. I have got gooseberry puree out of the freezer and bought double cream and strawberries yesterday, so pavlova or a gooseberry and strawberry crumble with cream :unsure: I've also got frozen puff pastry as another option :wacko:
OH has been no help and has said all puds are good ::)

That sounds like a list of ingredients for a Mary Berry Bake off recipe, with lots of layers :lol:
Will it be a technical challenge? :nowink:
-
Not with my baking skills :lol:
That's why I was thinking pav or crumble - forgiving puds that require little dexterity ;)
-
I think I'd go with gooseberry fool, perhaps with a few strawbs mashed in then a few to decorate. If you really wanted to push the boat out you could make some little biscuits to serve with it, cut in to egg/chick shapes? :D

Depends on the dinner- we had roast chicken so needed some texture, I did crisp puff apple tartlets, although they are all too 'full' to have pud now..... but scoffing choc ::) don't know why we bother :tongue2:
-I'd do stawbs/jam cream puff tarts as can have them tomorrow in case :wub:
-
We have roast chicken to come as OH needs roasties, or so he claims :nowink: :lol: We also have the traditional British bank holiday weather - perisisting down and miserable ::)
OH is now saying a hot pud would be just the ticket, so homemade crumble mix has been retrieved from the freezer :)

Can't go wrong with a crumble. Top breakfast food too :D

any of the above for me , we had a leg of lamb and the usual veg but I just made an orange sponge cake with lemon curd and cream in the centre , went down well , I didn't buy eggs I just got some bags of chocolate for them , tasted nicer than the egg and that was a thorntons one .
