No Bake Pineapple Souffle – A hassle-free treat!

The recipe I am about to share today is the most-wanted of all. By now, you all must have an idea that I am always after new and innovative dessert ideas to satisfy HI’s sweet tooth (such a good wife I am… lol) and this dessert was among the very first ones with which I attempted to do so. Yeah, I experimented this years ago (3 to be precise… haha) when Eaman (one of my BFFs) shared this recipe with me while we were discussing different dessert options for Eid on whatsapp – long distance relationship! (that was lame I know, ok sorry :p). I remember it was our first Eid away from home and I had to make something special apart from the usual Sheer Khurma you know.

I instantly resolved to prepare this because:

  • It seemed too simple, easy and quick
  • It was something unusual – 3 years ago, it definitely was!
  • Eaman was very positive about it

And since then I have made this gazillion times. This has been my go-to dessert for every party/ dawat. There are lots of similar recipes on the internet but this one has my heart now since this was the very first unwonted dessert I had made. Firsts are always special, right? 😀

Let’s get down to business without anymore delays.


About SouffleIt is usually a baked egg-based dish which was first tried by French people in early eighteenth century. However, the one I am about to share today has nothing to do with the baking part – just a fancy name given to easy-peasy sweet dish 🙂

GO:

MY TWO CENTS:

chef-hatYou can use ready made whipped cream but I prefer whipping it myself (in food processor).
chef-hatI crushed some strawberries and mixed them with whipped cream to achieve the look in the pictures (in case you are wondering what is that).

chef-hatYou can blend the mixture in a food processor/blender for all steps except for the last one. Do not blend after mixing the pineapple chunks.
chef-hatThis dessert is on the heavier side so avoid preparing it in combination with heavy meals but it always tastes good. 
chef-hatSetting times (jelly and final mixture) are not considered while estimating the above times.


Hope you’ll enjoy trying it out.
