Cranachan

Visible to anyone in the world

It being Burn's Night I had haggis with the neeps and tatties and for afters this cranachan, which was very nice indeed.


The OED defines the name like this

Scottish.

"A dessert typically made with whipped cream, whisky, oatmeal, honey, and berries (esp. raspberries)."

and although it must be traditional the first citation the OED gives is from 1946.
