• Nothing beats ice cream in summer, specially when combined with two of my favourite things – chocolate and berries. You can use any berries in season.

    Blueberry chocolate ice-cream sandwich

    Serves: 4
    Cooking Time: 3 hours 30 mins

    Ingredients

    • 800ml best-quality vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
    • 170g fresh blueberries, lightly mashed
    • 200g chocolate (we used Toblerone), coarsely chopped
    • 12 butter wafer or Belgian waffle biscuits
    • maple syrup, to serve
    • extra blueberries, to serve

    Instructions

    1

    In a large bowl, combine the ice cream, blueberries and chocolate. Mix quickly and place in the freezer for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. Remove the mixture from the freezer when it is hard, but still manageable.

    2

    To make individual portions, place 4 scoops of ice cream on a tray and top each with a biscuit. Repeat 3 times, ending with a layer of ice cream. Make sure the biscuits are well covered with ice cream on all surfaces.

    3

    Wrap each portion tightly in foil and return to the freezer for at least 1 hour.

    4

    To serve, remove the foil, cut the edges neatly off each portion and serve immediately, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with extra blueberries.
