Decoration Tips
When it comes to decorating these creamy biscuit sticks, the possibilities are endless. A classic option is to pipe the cream onto the biscuits and then garnish them with fresh berries, such as raspberries, blueberries, or strawberries. For an added touch of elegance, sprinkle finely chopped nuts like pistachios over the top. The green from the pistachios contrasts beautifully with the cream, adding both color and texture. Alternatively, you can dust the finished biscuits with a light layer of powdered sugar for a simple, clean presentation. To make them even more indulgent, drizzle a bit of melted chocolate over the top before serving. These finishing touches will make your dessert look like a work of art!
Ingredients:
- Biscuit sticks
For the Cream: - 250g cream cheese
- 100g yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3-4 tablespoons sugar
- 2 sheets of gelatin
- In a bowl, mix the cream cheese with the yogurt, lemon juice, and sugar until well combined.
- Soak the gelatin sheets in cold water until softened. Once soft, gently squeeze out the excess water.
- Place the softened gelatin in a heatproof bowl and melt it over a pot of simmering water, stirring until fully dissolved.
- Remove a tablespoon of the yogurt cream mixture and stir it into the dissolved gelatin to temper it. Then, gradually fold this gelatin mixture into the rest of the cream, ensuring everything is well incorporated.
- Chill the cream in the refrigerator until it firms up slightly. Once it has cooled, transfer it to a piping bag.
- Pipe the cream generously onto each biscuit stick. Decorate with fresh berries of your choice and, if desired, sprinkle with finely ground pistachios.
- Place the decorated biscuit sticks in the refrigerator to chill overnight, allowing the flavors to meld and the biscuits to soften slightly.
Enjoy!
