Coffee ice-cream with honeycomb

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes, plus 2 hours' freezing time

Cooking Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

For the coffee ice-cream:

2 cups cream
1 cup full-cream milk
130 g icing sugar
½ cup strong espresso

For the hokey pokey:

100 g sugar
4 T honey
1 ½ t bicarbonate of soda

For the butterscotch sauce:

2 T butter
100 g treacle sugar
150 g golden syrup
1 t vanilla extract
½ cup cream

Method

To make the coffee ice cream, whisk all the ingredients until combined. Divide the mixture between 2 Ziploc bags, expel the air and seal. Lay the bags flat in the freezer and freeze for 2 1⁄2 hours.
Break up the mixture and blend in a food processor for 2–3 minutes. Spoon into a loaf tin and freeze.
To make the hokey pokey, whisk the sugar and honey in a saucepan over a medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Cook until golden, then remove from the heat. Whisk in the bicarbonate of soda and pour onto a silpat or silicone paper. Allow to cool and set.

4. To make the butterscotch sauce, heat the butter, sugar and syrup in a saucepan over a medium heat. Boil for 5 minutes, then stir in the vanilla extract and cream. Cook until golden brown and sticky. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

Cook’s note: Use Woolworths’ toffee dessert sauce if you don’t want to make your own butterscotch sauce (it’s delicious over waffles, too. Shhh!).
