Ingredients:
Great for parties, you can easily put this indulgent little dessert recipe together in advance.
In a bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until pale, light and fluffy. Bash the sweets in a pestle and mortar until you have fine bits. Add the bits, flour and cornflour to the bowl. Mix very lightly, first with a wooden spoon, then with your hands, to make a smooth dough. Place on a floured surface and roll into a long sausage, then warp in clingfilm and chill in the fridge for half an hour.
Preheat the oven to 150ºC/300ºF/gas 2. Slice the chilled dough into 1cm discs. Lay them on a greased baking sheet with a little space between them, then bake for 25 minutes until lightly golden. Remove and leave to cool.
Halve and stone the apricots, then whiz them with the raspberries and strawberries in a food processor. Whip up the cream with the icing sugar until you have soft peaks.
Place a tablespoon of cream into each of 4 glasses, smooth over some fruit and repeat until the glass is full. Sprinkle over some crumbled shortbread and serve with a couple more shortbread biscuits on the side.
Tip: Use shop-bought organic shortbread for a super-speedy dessert
