  • serves 4 people
  • preparation 10 minutes
  • cooking 30 minutes
  • difficulty Easy level

Ingredients

  • 4 Weetbix
  • 1 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tbsp strawberry jam
  • 1 cup mixed berries
  • Mint leaves, to garnish

For the vanilla cream

  • 300 ml thickened cream
  • 150 g mascarpone
  • 50 g icing sugar mixture, plus extra for dusting
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Combine the ingredients for the vanilla cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on medium speed, until the mixture forms soft peaks. Transfer the vanilla cream to a piping bag fitted with a petal nozzle. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before using.
  2. When ready to assemble, split each weetbix in half horizontally, to form two thin wafers. In a small bowl, combine the butter and jam, then brush the bottom weetbix wafer with a thick layer of the jam mixture. Pipe over some vanilla cream, then stud the cream with a few berries.
  3. Top the cream with the second weetbix wafer. Pipe over a little more vanilla cream. Decorate with remaining berries, dust with icing sugar and garnish with mint leaves. Serve.
