Advantages: Tastes great

Disadvantages: Not too healthy!

First of all, i shall acknowledge this recipe to its origional source (as far as i know), as i got it from the channel 4 website, from one of their come dine with me recipes. The website is great to use by the way, and very easy to find any recipe you want.

Ok, so the ice cream i made was a slight deviation of their recipe as i am not too keen on whisky, i replaced it with ammaretto which is lovely (see my review).

First of all, you place 4 egg yolks in a bowl with 250g of thick honey, and whisk until the mixture is about double in size (i had to use a whisking machine as doing it manually wasnt seeming to work). Then add 600ml of thick cream, (the recipe actually said a pint, but i only had 600ml), and whisk thoroughly again, finishing it off with 2-3 fl ounces of ammaretto.

After whisking it all in, put the mixture in the freezer for 3-4 hours, maybe more (until its frozen!). Serve with crushed ammeretti buiscuits ontop and you will be very pleased with the results!

Summary: Give it a go, its easy. Obv for kids, maybe leave the alcohol out.
