Easily whip up a decadent amaretto cherry parfait with a simple trick.
Ingredients:
  • 450g Madeira cake, cut into 1cm slices
  • 150ml amaretto (see note)
  • 10 egg yolks (see note)
  • 250g caster sugar
  • 1L (4 cups) thin cream
  • Amarena Fabbri cherries (see note) or seasonal fruit, to serve
Instructions:
  • Arrange the cake slices snugly in the 28cm springform cake pan to fully cover the base. Cut and adjust slices as needed. Gently brush the cake with 1-2 tablespoons of amaretto for a delicious touch.
  • Whisk together egg yolks and sugar in an electric mixer bowl until creamy and voluminous.
  • Mix in the rest of the amaretto. Whip the cream until soft peaks form in another bowl, then gently fold it into the egg yolk mixture. Pour the mixture into a cake pan and freeze it overnight.
  • Allow to thaw at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving. Unmold from pan, slice with a knife dipped in hot water, and serve garnished with cherries or seasonal fruit.
