This is just to die for!! I've never served this without someone wanting the recipe, but more than that, they want to take leftovers home! (That's why I always make a double batch!). It's a simple make-ahead sauce and can be used for dessert or breakfast. It's a great presentation when served in a wine or martini glass. I got this recipe from Bon Appetit magazine in 1995. Ingredients:
10 ounces cream cheese, room temperature |
1 cup sour cream |
1/2 cup powdered sugar |
6 tablespoons powdered sugar |
1/2 cup whipping cream |
2 tablespoons grand marnier (i usually double this) |
8 cups fresh fruit |
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients and 2 tablespoons Grand Marnier in processor. Blend until smooth.
2. Taste and add more Grand Marnier, if desired.
3. Transfer mixture to bowl and refrigerate until cold, about one hour. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.).
4. Divide fruit among 8 stemmed goblets.
5. Top with sauce and serve.
6. Note: Use any fresh fruit in season that you like. It's especially good with strawberries, grapes, and blueberries.
