Intergalactic Christmas Pudding

I received and documented this recipe on Christmas Eve. Smooth cream cheese, sweet ripe fruit, magical cookie crumbs — and, of course, a couple of signature extraterrestrial touches from our neighbors from another corner of the Universe.

Total time: 50 minutes | Cooking time: 10 minutes | Yield: 4 servings

INGREDIENTS

1. Shortbread cookies - 180 g

2. Butter - 90 g

3. Cocoa - 1 tbsp

4. Condensed milk - 2 tbsp

5. Salt - 1/4 tsp (optional)

6. Space pine needles - 9-12 drops

7. Cream cheese - 200 g

8. Fruit - to taste

9. Orbital ether - 3-5 drops

10. Dark chocolate - 80 g

Step By Step Cooking Process

STEP 1

Crush the cookies into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter, cocoa, condensed milk, salt (optional), and a few drops of space pine needles to give the base a subtle green color. Mix until smooth.

STEP 2

Take half of the cream cheese and mix it with a few drops of orbital ether to achieve a gentle purple shade.

STEP 3

Place half of the cookie base into a mold or bowl and press it firmly. Add the plain cream cheese, fruit, and the purple frosting. Cover with the remaining cookie base and refrigerate for 40 minutes.

STEP 4

Transfer the chilled pudding onto a dessert plate, drizzle with melted dark chocolate, and return it to the refrigerator for 5 minutes so the chocolate sets.Slice and serve as a festive holiday dessert.

Merry Christmas — and see you in the Gentleman Cuisine!
