Christmas Cake Ice Cream Wreath
Ice cream is such a popular summertime dessert, but we often feel like it is too easy and perhaps not special enough for the festive table. But we've made a plan! Try Chef Christiaan's Christmas Cake Ice Cream and serve it as a beautiful festive wreath and with our delicate dessert wine, the Culinaria Muscat!
Easy Christmas Cake Ice Cream Recipe
Ingredients
4 large egg yolks
100 g caster sugar
175 g leftover Christmas Cake
2 - 3 Tbsp brandy
250 ml double cream
Method
Whisk the egg yolks and sugar with an electric whisk for 10 mins until pale and fluffy.
Break up the Christmas Cake with a fork and stir it into the egg mixture so it is evenly distributed. Add brandy and mix well.
In a separate bowl, whip the cream until it holds soft peaks, then fold it into the mixture with a large metal spoon.
Pour into a freezer-proof container, cover well and freeze for several hours until set.
Decorate with biscuits, fresh fruit or flours.
