Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    I have made this countless times but apparently never commented. My stores no longer carry pre-made meringue shells (sigh) so this time I made my own from Joyofcooking.com (with a great video clearly showing all steps & “look fors”). I keep the raspberry sauce on the tart side and barely sweeten the whipping cream to offset the sweet meringues. This time I used lactose free whipping cream to accommodate a friend and there really was no difference. I serve this spooned into martini glasses and it has been a big hit at very formal dinners and casual get togethers.

    Very good. Used blackberries and left out the liqueur.

    I used meringue shells from the meringues chantilly recipe. Made 1/2 recipe but used 2 meringue shells. Overall, pretty good, but too sweet. I'd suggest using unsweetened whipped cream and/or using less sugar in the raspberries.
