Ingredients
- 60 g. (a little over 2 oz.) pinhead oatmeal (not rolled or porridge oats) shopping list
- 30 g. (very slightly over 1 oz.) soft brown sugar shopping list

How to make it
- Mix the oatmeal with the brown sugar and toast VERY carefully in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, tossing often, until the mixture is golden and crunchy. They can burn easily, so watch it like a hawk. Set aside and let cool.
- Take 50 g. of the raspberries and blend in the liquidiser until smooth. Set aside.
- Toss the remaining raspberries in a splash of whisky and a little warmed honey, and set aside.
- Whip the cream until stiff.
- Carefully stir in the 4 tbsps. each of honey and whisky.
- Gently fold in 50 g. of the toasted oatmeal.
- Lightly fold in the raspberry puree, aiming for a 'ripple' effect.
- Spoon the mixture into four serving dishes.
- Scatter the remaining oatmeal and raspberries over the top, and serve.
