Eton Mess

Yesterday we had friends up from our old church, Jacqui & Graham. We had a great time, talking, laughing, eating, walking, eating! It's hard to leave friends when God moves us on to another area but so much fun when they come and visit!
So for desert I made Eton Mess, the first time I have made it and the first time I have used Carnation Squeezy Condensed Milk.
Raspberry Eton Mess
serves 4
284ml whipping cream
170g (6oz) Carnation condensed milk
Few drops vanilla extract
225g (8oz) raspberries, fresh or frozen, defrosted
4 small crushed meringues
1. Whip cream 'till soft & thick, fold in condensed milk and vanilla
2. Reserve a few raspberries for top, slightly crush the rest of them and gently ripple fruit through the cream mixture
3. Layer meringues and raspberry cream into 4 glass dishes.
4 Add reserved raspberries to the top
