I love to entertain . A special rule for me is mingling and enjoying myself with my guests,so I prepare as much as possible ahead of time. I also love serving fresh fruit,in season, along with other desserts. I found this recipe by Le Ann Dreier and have used it since. Unlike Zabalione,it can be prepared ahead of time and refridgerated.
Serves 8
8 cups assorted fresh fruit such as,grapes,raspberries,strawberries,blueberries,mangoes,melons ,pineapples, all cut into bite sized pieces and skewered on to small fancy tooth picks.
SAUCE
10 oz cream cheese,room temperature
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup plus 6 tablespoons powdered sugar
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons (or more) Grand Marnier .
Combine all ingredients for sauce in a food processor. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust Grand Marnier ,as desired. Refridgerate till cold,at least 1 hour. (may be prepared a day ahead).
Fan Fruit Kebabs on an attractive platter. Place sauce in a serving bowl on the side,allow your guests to help themselves.
