Adrienne once again wowed us with her fantastic cooking this past weekend - we had a little Christmas shindig where she made an excellent home made pot pie, creamy brussel sprouts, and a fresh citrus and fennel salad. But dessert took the "cake" so to speak.
AJ did this - cut an avocado in half, gently removing the pit. The pit was then replaced with chocolate mousse, the avocado then rubber-banded back together and placed in the fridge. Once cooled, the avocado was gingerly peeled to keep its shape, then rolled in chocolate nibs and pistachios. Accompanying this little gem was home made grape sorbet, which AJ made in her ice cream maker and flavored with the juice from hand-pressed grapes. Unbelievable.
It was, as always, a great nite with excellent food, wine, and after-dinner sweets. Spoiled, I am.
