who feels like dessert now after watching the cooks on t.v. nice to see how to make some easy peasy fancy desserts. going to try the strawberry one, but as strawberrys are not around. what would peeps suggest. I thought, passionfruit glaze would be nice too.

They all looked lovely, and I am not a fan of deserts.

Any upside-down pudding will do - pears & ginger anyone?
I make Mille Feuilles using filo pastry and mixing whipped cream into yoghurt.It's every bit as good as the one Ray McVinnie did, without all the fat ;)

what fruit did you put in

I use berries - boysenberries or raspberries, and I don't mind if they collapse a little because they're softer, as I make individual Mille Feuilles and don't have to slice them.

MILLE FEUILLES
For one serving: 1 sheet filo pastry 1 tsp butter
Filling: 1/2 cup natural, unsweetened yoghurt 3 Tbsp whipped cream 3/4 cup raspberries 1 tsp raspberry jam 1 tsp icing sugar
Preheat oven to 210*C Melt butter and brush sheet of filo.Fold in half and cut into three pieces lengthways. (Fold cut edge in about 1 cm to make it stronger) Place filo pieces on baking paper and bake for about 3 minutes till lightly golden. WATCH them!They burn very quickly. Mix together yoghurt, cream, raspberries and jam Layer - filo, filling, filo, filling, filo - dust top layer with icing sugar
This is big and impressive and is delicious - without all the fat of the butter pastry and excessive amount of cream.

Mmmm elliehen like the sound of yoghurt with cream filling will be making it.i use sliced kiwi fruit as another option, when fresh strawberries are not available.
