Description
A quick and classic British dessert combining the tartness of rhubarb with sweet, crunchy meringue and fresh whipped cream.
Ingredients
2 stalks of rhubarb, baked or stewed with sugar
8 oz fresh whipping cream
6 medium sized meringues, or 12 tiny ones
Instructions
Step 1: In a bowl, whip the fresh cream until it forms soft peaks.
Step 2: Roughly crush the meringues and place a layer in the bottom of your serving dishes.
Step 3: Top the crushed meringues with a layer of the prepared rhubarb.
Step 4: Add a layer of whipped cream over the rhubarb.
Step 5: Repeat the layers of meringue, rhubarb, and cream as desired, finishing with cream on top.
Notes
Ensure your rhubarb is cooked and cooled before you begin assembling the dessert.
For best results, assemble the Eton Mess just before serving to keep the meringues crunchy.
