Ice cream!

Are you ready? This dessert is nearly too good to be true and too easy to believe!

It started off with a packet of cream that needed using up.

The base icecream recipe is that simple:

600 ml cream

1 tin of condensed milk.

Whip the cream, then mix in the condensed milk. How easy is that?!

Now here comes the fun part: flavouring!

I toasted some coconut (maybe 1/2 cup?) in a frying pan till golden, stirring all the time: then tipped it out so it didn't continue to cook.

I cut up two Cherry Ripes (resisting the urge to nibble....)

and added a slug of Malibu for a hit of adult coconut flavour!

That's it: mix it all together and put it into the freezer. No beating, no churning, next step is eating!

And the result? YUUUUM... served for effect with some berry coulis, a raspberry macaron, crushed meringue, extra cherry ripe and a maraschino cherry... just because I wanted a cherry on top!

Let me know what flavourings you try!
