Ingredients
- 300ml pot whipping cream
- 500g pot fresh custard

WEIGHT CONVERTER
Method
- Whip the cream in a large bowl until it holds its shape. Stir in the custard and Amaretto.
- Put the lined loaf tin on a tray or in a dish to catch spillages. Spoon half the custard mixture into tin, then add a few spoonfuls of compote, then rest of custard and rest of compote (but leave half the tub for serving with pud).
- Sprinkle the amaretti biscuits over and then pull the cling film up and over to seal. Put in the freezer to firm — overnight.
