We are on puddings for Christmas Lunch and we are doing little pavs with whipped cream (with a touch oficing sugar and vanilla bean paste in it), fresh berry compote. but I feel its lacking something ! Any suggestions!

An obvious hot option is the traditional Plum Duff with brandy butter or brandy sauce - or use rum if that is preferred and/or more readily available, but what ages are you providing for nanberrie, and are you having both cold and hot desserts or cold only!:-))

Only 2 kids and 7 adults, cold dessert only

Chestnut Tourinois.
Pureed chestnuts, butter, sugar, chocolate, orange juice and zest and Grand Marnier or Cointreau!
