Applescotch Icecream (serves 6)

I used to do this but didn’t bother with the apple cases or decoration. Not sure if you can omit the Whisky but it doesn’t taste too strongly and is suitable for children as long as they don’t have too much. It is quite rich as it is, so you don’t need to have large servings.

450g/1 lb apples, peeled cored and chopped
50g/2oz butter
Grated rind and juice of 1 lemon (the juice is only needed if you make the apple cases)
3 eggs, separated
6 tbls whisky
300ml/ ½ pint double or whipping cream
175g/6oz caster sugar
6 even sized red skinned eating apples (quite large ones)
Marzipan or chocolate leaves to decorate

1) Put the cooking apples into a pan with butter and lemon rind. Cover and cook gently until apple is tender, about 20 mins
2) Beat the cooked apple to a pulp and stir in the egg yolks. Cook v gently until the mixture thickens. Beat in the whisky and allow mixture to cool.
3) Whip the cream until it is thick and fold into the apple puree together with half the sugar.
4) Spoon the apple mixture into a plastic freezer container and half freeze. Once the ice crystals have formed around the edge, tip into a large mixing bowl.
5) Whisk the egg whites until stiff and then whisk in the remaining sugar. Fold lightly but evenly into the par frozen apple mixture. Return to the freezer wile you prepare the ‘apple cases’.
6) To make the apple cases, cut a thin slice from the stalk end of each apple. Keep to one side. Carefully hollow out the centre apple flesh and core, leaving a ‘shell’ approx 1cm/ ½ thick. Brush with lemon juice, all the exposed surfaces, including the ‘lids’.
7) Spoon the par frozen apple ice cream into the ‘shells’ and top with the apple ‘lids’. Wrap each filled apple in freezer wrap or small freezer bag. Return to freezer until needed. Remember that the apples will need to be removed to soften 30 min before serving (Same applies if you don’t bother with stuffing apples)
8) Decorate each apple with a chocolate or marzipan leaf.
