What to do with chestnut puree?

[SummatAndNowt]

Tins only 30p so couldn't resist. Now what do I do with it? Preferably something sweet.

mmm here

ooo, google recipes for chestnut pavlova - there is some recipe involving chestnut puree and meringue and cream.

Also chestnut ice cream. Or chestnut parfait.

Mmmm, I love sweet chestnut puree. tbh I would just dollop spoonfuls on good vanilla ice cream.

I bunged a tin of chestnut puree into my carrot cake mix the other day, it was lovely.

chocolate and chestnut is a great combination, google recipes for those. Or chestnut pavlova, again very yummy.

Or a chestnut mousse with lots of cream, flavoured with nutmeg and cinnamon.

Put a swirl in natural yoghurt, yummy.

Ooooh lovely! Lots of ideas.

Oh god yes Dior, that is divine!

Great in a sausage casserole, especially if you chuck in a tin of chestnuts. There's a fab chocolate chestnut cheesecake recipe in a gordon ramsey book, but I actually think the recipe is hugh fearnley whittingstall's - could check his website?

I'd appreciate the Gary Rhodes recipe

Unfortunately I can't do anything to do with meringues as my mum is diabetic and that's just a bit too much sugar

Am also intrigued by the sausage casserole. Might use the second tin for that.

I found it here;

It really is such a hit. I def recommend it.

Thank you! Am definitely going to make that as I have cheesecake loving family coming over this weekend.

I used half a tin yesterday, I was making sweet potato soup and thought it would be lovely in it, and it was!
