wafers

<p>This recipe is adapted from <em>SeriousEats.com</em>. The recipe suggests using chocolate ice cream, but you can use whichever one you like.</p>

Ice Cream Sandwich

ice cream, slightly softened

all-purpose flour

cocoa powder

salt

sugar

unsalted butter

tsp vanilla extract

Almond bread or biscotti

Caster sugar

Eggs, whites (Main)

Plain flour

Almonds,

pistachios

Ginger, preserved, chopped

Beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add sugar gradually and beat until dissolved.

Fold in flour, nuts and ginger gently until no dry ingredients are visible.

Put into a 20 x 10cm greased loaf tin lined with a strip of baking paper for easy removal.

Bake for 40 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean. Leave in the tin to cool.

Turn out and slice wafer-thin with a very sharp knife.

Place slices on an oven tray and bake in a slow oven, about 20 minutes, until brittle.

Follow the almond bread recipe to end of step 3.

Divide mix in half and form into 2 fairly sloppy sausage shapes, wrapped in baking paper.

Cook in a pan of your choice for 20 minutes at 160C fan bake.

Cut into 2cm-thick slices and lay at on tray. Cook for 20 minutes more "so they dry out and look better with a little colour".

Serve with sherry or a cup of tea or coffee.

Tuiles Recipe

g caster sugar

60 g plain flour

tsp Vanilla extract

60 g butter, melted and cooled

Preheat oven to 180℃ / 350℉ /Gas Mark 4.

Add egg whites to a large bowl and whisk a little before adding the sugar and whisking until frothy.

Stir in the flour and vanilla extract or spice and then add the melted butter. Mix to a smooth batter.

Can be kept in the fridge at this stage until required.

Spoon onto lined baking trays and spread thinly into 7.5 cm (3 inch) diameter circles or use a template. 6 per sheet is ideal as the mixture spreads a little. Sprinkle with flaked almonds if you are making the almond tuiles.

Place in the heated oven and bake for 7 to 8 minutes until the tuiles are just turning golden around the edges.

Remove the baking tray from the oven and, working very quickly, lift each tuile off the baking tray with a palette knife and drape over a rolling pin or roll up around a wooden spoon handle and leave to cool.

Bake in batches 2 trays at a time.

Store in an airtight container.
