Thu, 21 March 2024

Chocolate Easter Egg Ice Cream
INGREDIENTS
• 500 ml double cream
• 1 can (397g) condensed milk
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 small hollow Chocolate Easter eggs
 
METHOD
 
1. In a large bowl, semi-whip the double cream until it reaches soft peaks. Carefully fold in the condensed milk and vanilla extract, ensuring the mixture is thoroughly combined yet retains its lightness
2. Neatly slice the Easter eggs in half to form 6 chocolate bowls. Evenly allocate the ice cream mixture among these chocolate halves, filling them up. Place the filled chocolate egg halves in the freezer and leave them overnight to set into a sumptuous frozen treat
 
Customisation Tips:
 
Tailor this basic recipe with a variety of flavours to suit your taste or festive theme:

• Biscuit Crunch: Mix in crushed biscuits of your choice for added texture and flavour
• Chocolate Delight: Intensify the chocolate sensation by incorporating chopped chocolate bars or a swirl of melted chocolate
• Nutty Caramel: Mix in roasted nuts and caramel for a decadent, crunchy twist
