From: GUEST Cranachan Ingredients: 3 oz (half cup) pinhead or coarse oatmeal Half pint double cream 1 tablespoon Drambuie (optional) Method: Toast the oatmeal in a frying pan on a high heat until lightly brown. Whisk the cream into a soft consistency and mix in the oatmeal and Drambuie (alternatively, use a few drops vanilla essence or other flavouring of your choice). Serve in tall glasses. A popular variation is to mix in 6oz (one and a half cups) of fresh raspberries. Or use vanilla ice cream instead of cream. a popular treat in the Mudcat Tavern |

23 Apr 04 - 07:57 AM (#1168865) Subject: RE: BS: Recipe for Cranachan anyone? From: GUEST,Raggytash Drambuie or Whisky is NOT optional it is ESSENTIAL. I prefer to use a whisky/honey combination as I find Drambuie too sweet 1/2 pint whipped cream, whipped till it peaks, fold in 2 tablespoons plain yoghurt, honey and single malt whisky to taste (I use 2 tablespons of honey and a couple of measures of whisky)and also fold in roasted oats and this time, do NOT whisk. This is then spooned into a brandy baskets half filled with fresh (if possible) Raspberries, finished with a grating of dark chocolate and a Raspberry, chill before serving. Definite loosener of knicker elastic this one ! |

From: Raggytash Micca, Never tried it, so cannot make a judgement, however I am aware that wombat is rather fond of it, so it may work. However I first came across Cranachan when I was invited to dine in Glenturret Distillery ................I suppose they have a interest in using whisky Glenturret, incidentally make a rather pleasant Whiskey liquer themselves but did not use it for the Cranachan so that may give you some indication |

From: Raggytash Incidentally, I missed something off my recipe, it is finished ot only with a raspberry, grated dark choclate but a little raspberry sauce drizzled over. You can make it with Strawberrys but I find they don't work as well, not tried anything else yet. |
