'V' Scottish Cranachan

Ingredients:
oats
raspberries, raw
cream, fluid, heavy whipping
alcoholic beverage, distilled, whiskey, 86 proof
honey

Directions:
Heat a large heavy based skillet/frying pan on the stove until hot.
Add the oats and stirring constantly , toast the oats until they have a light, nutty smell and are just beginning to change colour.
Do not leave them as they the oatmeal can quickly burn.
Remove the oats from the pan.
keep a handful of raspberries to one side, place the remaining raspberries into a food processor and whiz once or twice to create a puree, don't whiz too much I just crushed them with a fork preferred it more solid than pureed ...you can add sugar or powdered sweetener at this point as raspberries are a bit tart
In a large bowl whisk the cream and whiskey to form stiff peaks, finally fold in the honey.
in either a glass trifle bowl, or individual dessert glasses layer the dessert starting with the cream , followed by raspberries then oatmeal, repeat several times always finish with a layer of cream then a scattering of oatmeal ..then place remaining raspberries on top if desired ....or just eat them mmm.
cover the bowl with clingfilm and chill for 1 hour or more if possible.
Drizzle over a little extra honey ( optional) can be served with shortbread
perfect for any celebrations...Hogmanay, or.
Burns night supper ..also good in the summer
