This dish is not only easy but very elegant, relates Renee Zimmer of Gig Harbor, Washington. I got the recipe from a church cooking class and now fix it often, with rave reviews. You can serve it in bowls, but I always get more oohs and aahs when I put it in lovely goblets. Ingredients:
3 large tart apples, peeled and chopped |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/4 cup water |
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
12 shortbread cookies, crushed |
2 cups vanilla ice cream |
whipped cream |
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the apples, sugar, water, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until apples are tender. Uncover; cook 9-11 minutes longer or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Remove from the heat. 2. In each of four goblets or parfait glasses, layer 1 tablespoon cookie crumbs, the ice cream and the apple mixture. Top with remaining cookie crumbs and whipped cream. Serve immediately. Yield: 4 servings. |
