inlaws

[nextqueen]

oh no, inlaws coming for 2 nights now, that means ive got to make 2 desserts, already planned on making crumble for sunday, what else can i make? father in law doesnt like creamy things or custard, got to be careful with his heart.

[Psybbo]

Fresh fruit salad?

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

tarte tatin

[nextqueen]

mmm, dont really want to do just fruit not even with ice cream, and dont want to do pastry though definitely want to try and make that one day mojo. tiramisu and profiteroles would be good but of course got cream in them, i remember father in law liked a tiramisu once that was more like a cake, they used to sell it in aldi but it is no more alas, im stumped.

Have you got time to get something from Waitrose/M&S and pass it off as your own? If not, how about this? Yummy, easy to make, and not too creamy.

Old quality street tin, filled with Twix's, Kit Kats and Penguin Bars to rustle through with a brew - oooo that rhymed!

Bread and butter pudding might work. I make one with marmalade it's not heavy and you don't need cream. Given the weather we are having it wont be out of place in this so called Summer.

chocolate mousse is creamy isnt it and he doesnt like this consistency of anything but sounds yummy for rest of us!

[EvianBaby]

Go out for dinner.

pineapple upside down cake? that's easy :o)

[ummmm]

Why don't you just do a cheeseboard?

[ummmm]

Or a sorbet.

[vodkancoke]

Meringues or as Ummmm says, a really nice cheeseboard

[mazie]

Ahhhh. Mango sorbet, excellent idea ummmm

[dotty.]

open a tin of rice pudding, pour a portion over a Mr kipling single apple pie, zap it in the microwave, heaven

[Nosha123]

Apple tart???

[Kiki-frog]

nextqueen, just whack in loads of rum, tia maria, cointreau, whatever you have to hand, and it'll be fab. Put a couple of posh biscuits on the side, and it'll work. In fact if you make it look posh, then you could probably use meths instead of rum, and no one will ever know.

[B00]

couldn't you just get them so mullered on booze they'll not notice whether you've given them a pudding or not?

[Anngel123]

What about bakewell tart? You can use a thin scone mixture to make the pastry, with a very little sugar in it. Then it is not so fatty!

[mazie]

I like B00's suggestion the best

[Jules001]

fresh fruit pavlova or summer pudding?
