Skyrmús með hvítu súkkulaði og lakkríshafrakrumpli

Skyrmus with white chocolate and crunchy licorice oatmeal muesli


This dessert with its somewhat unexpected mix of very traditional Icelandic ingredients (Skyr! Oats!) and newer influences (white chocolate and especially licorice!!) as well as the somewhat unusual way of preparation is really very typical of modern Icelandic cuisine. And it tastes really, really good!


Ingredients for 4 persons


80 g hearty oat flakes
3 Tbsp honey
2 tsp sweet licorice syrup
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking cocoa
2 tsp fine licorice powder, if available

350 g vanilla skyr
200 ml whipping cream
2 Tbsp powdered sugar
1 pinch of ground vanilla
120 g white chocolate

200 g fresh blueberries


Preparation

First prepare the licorice oat meal muesli:

Preheat the oven to 275 °F (140 °C) upper/lower heat.

In a bowl, thoroughly mix the oat flakes with the honey, licorice syrup, cinnamon and baking cocoa. For a more intense licorice taste, stir in fine licorice powder.


Line the baking tray with baking paper and spread the oat flakes mixture on it.


Then bake in the oven for about 30 - 40 minutes until everything is nice and crispy.

Take the baked mixture out of the oven, crumble it and then let it cool down well.



Then prepare the Skyrmús:

Break the chocolate into small pieces and let it melt in a water bath. Then let it cool for about an hour.


Mix the skyr thoroughly with the powdered sugar and vanilla.


Add the well-cooled but still liquid melted white chocolate, stirring constantly.


Whip the cream until stiff and carefully fold it into the skyr mixture, then chill the mixture in the refrigerator.


Before serving, wash and drain the blueberries and serve the Skyrmús with the licorice oatmeal muesli and the berries.
