Strawberry Parfait With Vin Santo Mascarpone Biscotti Recipes

STRAWBERRY PARFAIT WITH VIN SANTO, MASCARPONE & BISCOTTI

Steps:

• Place the biscotti biscuits in a plastic bag and crush them lightly with the end of a rolling pin, leaving them slightly chunky. Tip the crushed biscuits into a bowl, drizzle over the Vin Santo and give it a stir. In small bowl, use a fork to slightly mash half of the strawberries with the sugar.
• Whip the mascarpone in a medium bowl, then fold into the whipped cream. If the mixture appears too thick fold through a little milk. In a 1-litre glass bowl, spread half of the soaked biscotti. Top with half of the mashed strawberries and then half of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat until you have used up everything. Slice the remaining strawberries and scatter over the top. Refrigerate, then pack into a cooler as this dessert should be served chilled.

ROASTED STRAWBERRIES WITH VIN SANTO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the strawberries, oil, 2 tablespoons of the sugar and a pinch of salt to the prepared baking sheet. Toss well to coat evenly and spread out on the baking sheet. Roast until the strawberries are soft and have released some of their juices, about 30 minutes. Pour the strawberries and the juices into a bowl and toss with the wine. Allow to cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk the heavy cream with the mascarpone and the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes.
• To serve, divide the strawberries among small serving cups or coupes. Dollop with the cream and sprinkle with some of the cookie crumble.
