Ingredients
Rhubarb & Strawberry Jam:
- 2 cups (350g) strawberries – fresh or frozen – stalks removed
- 1 lemon – juice only
- 1/4 cup (40g) coconut sugar
- 25-30 drops Foodie Flavours Rhubarb
Cream Cheese Mix:
- 1 cup (210g) vegan plain cream cheese
- 1/2 cup (75g) icing sugar
Cream:
- 1 cup (270ml) vegan double cream
- 1/4 cup (75g) icing sugar
Some fresh strawberries for garnish
Instructions
Serves 4
- Make the jam first by putting the strawberries, lemon juice and sugar into a saucepan. Bubble over a medium heat, stirring from time to time for around 10 minutes
- Once the berries are soft and starting to go mushy, squash them a little with the spoon until no large lumps remain. Cook, stirring for another 5 minutes, turn off the heat and add the Rhubarb Natural Flavouring, stir well then set aside to cool for at least half an hour
- Once the jam is cooled, whisk the cream cheese with the icing sugar until no lumps remain
- Then whisk the vegan cream with more icing sugar until soft but definite peaks are formed
- Gently stir together the cream cheese and cream mixtures then very gently swirl in around 2/3 of the cooled jam
- Spoon or pipe half the mixture into 6 glasses then top with half the jam across all the glasses. Use something long like a skewer to swirl the extra jam into the cream in the glasses
- Top each glass with the remaining cream mixture then spoon on and swirl in the remaining jam
- Top with some halves of fresh strawberry
- Store in the fridge for 1-2 days
