Brandy Fruit - A Memorable Fruit Compote!

<<

This dessert recipe is for the over-18 crowd only. Brandy Fruit is basically fruit compote soaked in brandy. When it is served over sorbet or ice cream in a beautiful brandy or parfait glass, it becomes very elegant, not to mention, potent.

Ingredients:

  • 6 dried figs
  • 12 dried apricots, cut in half
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/4 cup dried berries (cranberries, cherries)
  • 2 tbsp. sugar
  • 1/2 cup brandy*
In a bowl, cover fruit with boiling water and let it sit for 15-20 minutes until it softens. Drain water.

Chop the figs and apricots so that all fruit is the size of the raisins and dried berries.

Add softened, chopped fruit to a pot on the stove - blend in sugar and brandy. Simmer on low-medium heat for 15 minutes. Do not let fruit turn into mush.

Serve hot over sorbet, ice cream or other frozen dessert.

*If you want to avoid alcohol, use apple cider or de-alcoholized wine.
