Ingredients
- 400g fresh cherries, stoned
- 75g caster sugar
- 500ml good-quality vanilla or raspberry ripple ice cream
- 4 Cadbury Flakes
- 4 tbsp chopped mixed nuts, toasted
- 2 tbsp chocolate sprinkles or grated chocolate
Method
- Place the stoned cherries and caster sugar in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the cherries are softened and the juice has thickened and is syrupy. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely.
- Place a spoonful of the cooled cherry mixture into 4 dessert dishes or serving glasses and place a scoop of ice cream on top. Cut each Flake in half and crumble 1 half over the ice cream in the dishes. Repeat with another layer of ice cream, then spoon over another tablespoon of the cherry mixture.
- Pop the remaining Flakes into the ice cream and serve sprinkled with chopped toasted mixed nuts and the chocolate sprinkles or grated chocolate.

A cherry stoner is invaluable for removing the stones and keeping the cherry whole. It’s a great gadget and a fun job for the children to do. Visit www.lakeland.co.uk to order.
