Cost per serve 98p
2 x 480ml tubs Tesco Finest
chocolate ice cream
2 x 480ml tubs Tesco Finest salted
caramel ice cream
480ml tub Tesco Finest Madagascan
vanilla ice cream
350g dark chocolate, chopped
5 tbsp toasted chopped hazelnuts
200ml whipping cream
2 tbsp golden syrup
150g pack raspberries
edible glitter, to serve (optional)
1 Working quickly, scoop balls of ice
cream from each tub onto trays
that fit in your freezer until you’ve
used up all the ice cream. Leave to
freeze overnight.
2 The following day, melt 150g dark
chocolate in a small heatproof bowl
set over a pan of barely simmering
water. Spear a few balls of ice
cream of each flavour with cocktail
sticks and dip into the chocolate
until mostly coated, then return to
the tray and quickly scatter over
3 tbsp chopped nuts. Return to the
freezer while you make the sauce.
3 Put the remaining chocolate in a
small heatproof bowl. Gently heat
the cream and golden syrup in a
small saucepan until just bubbling,
then pour over the chocolate.
Leave to stand for 5 mins, then stir
to make a glossy ganache. Leave to
cool to room temperature.
4 Stack the ice cream balls on
a serving plate, dotting the
berries in between. Drizzle
over the sauce and scatter
over the remaining nuts.
Dust with edible glitter, if you
like, and serve immediately.
