Christmas Ice Cream Plum Pudding is a no-bake ice cream cake with all the yummies a plum pudding has, without having to boil it for hours in the kitchen on Christmas Day.
A nice cool Christmas pudding if it is going to be stinking hot. Also a great gift idea!
Best of all, you can make this up to two weeks in advance, so you don’t have to spend hours in the kitchen at Christmas!
Method
-
Soak the fruit and nut in the brandy. Seal and refrigerate overnight (or even a few nights!) to infuse the flavour.
-
Take the ice-cream out of the freezer and leave it on the bench until softened.
-
Place ice-cream in a bowl with the custard, fruit and nuts and the grated chocolate.
-
Mix gently until combined.
-
Line a basin with plastic wrap (make sure there are no air holes) and pour the mixture in.
-
Cover tightly and freeze until firm (you can make this up to a week ahead).
-
Cut in slices and serve with whipped cream.
Recipe Hints and Tips:
- Frozen Plum Pudding is suitable to freeze for up to four months.
