Divide this mixture between 6 ramekins/small glasses, smoothing the mixture down gently with the back of a teaspoon. Place the ramekins/glasses in the fridge until you are ready to serve dessert. If you are using the homemade BITTERKOEKJESIJS (ice cream) then be sure to remove from the freezer in advance of dessert being served, so that it has time to soften. Perhaps as you are clearing after the starter. When you are ready to serve dessert, remove your ramekins/glasses from the fridge and spread a scoop of the ice cream on top of the biscuit base. Top with 1 or 2 BITTERKOEKJES (macaroons) and serve.

What is all this talk about the Bless Banquet? In the past we have raised money for Bless by cycling across France or touring the UK playing football. This year we wanted to do something a little bit different. We wanted to combine our passion for prayer; our enthusiasm for europe; our spirit of sharing meals around a table and turn it into a fundraising event that EVERYONE could get involved with. And so the bless banquet was born. Our aim is to inspire and resource YOU, the bless movement, to host a bless banquet in your neighbourhood at some point in MARCH 2014. Gather your friends around a table. Taste and pray for the nations of Europe. Share an amazing banquet. Raise funds for the ongoing work of Bless. What do I need to do to make this happen? Make a cup of tea and read through this resource pack. Hopefully it will answer most of your questions and give you the inspiration you need to get scheming.. VIEW RESOURCE PACK | DOWNLOAD RESOURCE PACK Next step is to recruit a friend or two to help you pull this off. Set a date, find a kitchen and a dining table and invite some friends who are willing to part with some cash for a four course feast. Keep us up to date with your bless banquet plans @blessnetwork #blessbanquet
