Instructions
Making the Coulis

Making the Glory
- Peel and slice the kiwis
- Wash the blueberries/ blackberries and pat dry with kitchen paper.
To assemble the knickerbocker glory you will need a tall, cocktail glass.
- Start with the strawberry coulis. Pour approx. 3 tbsp. into the bottom of the glass (be careful not to touch the side of the glass as we want to see tidy, clean layers).
- Top, wash and slice the strawberries into thin layers. Place carefully on top of the coulis.
- Cut the brownies into small rounds with a biscuit cutter. The size will depend on your glass and place gently onto of the strawberries, pressing down to make a compact layer.
- Place a dollop of cashew cream on top of the brownie, topped with the fresh kiwis and berries.
- Add another layer of cashew cream and top the Glory with the sliced strawberries.
- You can be inventive and alternate the layers to suit your taste.
