Chocolate Marquise with Cranberry Swirl Ice Cream, and Cranberry Compote
This was really nice. The chocolate marquise disks were incredibly good...sort of a frozen chocolate mousse (but much more complicated to make). The mint creme anglaise and chocolate sauce complimented it perfectly. I'm not sure I liked the cranberry swirl ice cream and cranberry compote with it though. I think that might be a reflection on the cranberries we used, which were a bit bitter, rather than the idea of cranberry with it. Regardless of the taste, it looked really nice with the cranberry compote and the cranberry swirl ice cream.
