  • 250 ml double cream
  • 8 - 12 macaroon
  • 2 tbsp sugar

3. In a separate bowl, whip the remaining cream until stiff then fold it into the cream cheese mixture and pour everything into a piping bag.

4. Divide chopped and marinated pineapple slices between 4 glasses. Sprinkle with crushed macaroons and top with a good dollop of the cream cheese mixture.

5. Decorate with some lemon verbena, serve and enjoy the delicious fruity and sweet sensations.
