This lemon pie dessert has a wonderful taste twist. The lovely soft lemon pie has a delicate creamy top and crunchy chocolate base. A forkful of the pie coats the mouth with the creamy lemon pie filling leading on to a yummy chocolaty crunch full of dried fruit.
Heat a pan and toast the cornflakes lightly. Remove cornflakes from pan and let them cool for 30 seconds. Crush the toasted cornflakes and place them in a bowl. Add the raisins and almonds to the crushed toasted cornflakes.
Step 2:
Turn on the stove in low flame to heat the pan and melt the chocolate pieces slowly over hot water. Once the chocolate turns sauce-like, transfer it to a bowl. Mix the chocolate sauce with the toasted cornflakes and dry fruit.
Step 3:
Place the chocolate crust mixture in the pie dish. Level the mixture evenly using a wooden spoon to form a nice base. Place in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes to set.
Step 4:
Making the Whipped Cream
Take a bowl, place the cream and whisk it until soft peaks are visible. Set aside.
Step 5:
Prepare the Agar Agar
Heat a pan over low flame. Add the water and agar-agar in the pan. Let the agar-agar melt and blend with the water to form a smooth texture. Turn off stove.
Step 6:
Make the Lemon Filling
Add all the lemon juice, lemon rind, vanilla essence, condensed milk in a bowl and mix well. Then add the warm agar-agar solution very slowly to the mixture. Mix well so that there are no lumps.
Step 7:
Add half of the whipped cream. Fold the cream delicately to the mixture using a spatula. Save rest of the whipped cream for garnishing.
Step 8:
Take out the set chocolate crust from the fridge. Pour the lemon filling on top of the chocolate crust. Level out evenly using a spoon. Place the pie dish again in the refrigerator for an hour or more.
Step 9:
Take out the lemon pie from the fridge. Cut a nice triangle-shaped slice of lemon pie and place on the plate. Fill the piping bag with the whipped cream. Pipe tiny stars all over the lemon pie slice! Add a lemon slice and mint sprig in the middle. Serve cold.
