Elevate summer desserts with a crunchy, cool mix of crushed meringues, strawberries, and cream for a simple yet sophisticated treat.
Ingredients:
  • 80g unsalted butter
  • 70g (1/3 cup) caster sugar, plus 3 tbs, extra
  • 28.60 gm honey
  • 120g (4 cups) cornflakes
  • 400g fresh strawberries, hulled, quartered, plus extra, hulled, halved, to serve
  • 450ml thickened cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 6 store-bought meringue nests, lightly crushed
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan forced) and prepare a large baking tray by lining it with baking paper.
  • In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, combine butter, sugar, and honey. Stir until butter melts and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat, then stir in cornflakes until well combined. Spread mixture evenly on a prepared tray. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden. Allow to cool completely before serving.
  • Place strawberries in a small bowl and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of extra sugar. Stir to combine and let it sit for 10 minutes to macerate. Roughly mash with a fork. In a separate bowl, beat cream, vanilla, and remaining sugar with electric beaters until soft peaks form.
  • Break honey joy clusters into smaller pieces using your hands. Divide one-third of the clusters among six 360ml serving glasses. Layer with one-third of the cream mixture, one-third of the macerated strawberries, and one-third of the meringue. Repeat with half of the remaining clusters, cream mixture, strawberries, and meringue to create another layer. Finish with the remaining cream mixture, strawberries, and meringue. Garnish with the remaining clusters and extra strawberries on top. Serve immediately.
