With a little inspiration, imagination and forward planning, a day involving screaming hordes of children in summer can be fun.


Ingredients

  • 1 litre neapolitan ice-cream
  • 12 paddle pop sticks
  • 250g cooking chocolate
  • Sugar quins or small sweets for decoration

 

Method

Form ice-cream into small balls with a scoop or spoon and place on a lightly greased metal tray. Push a paddle pop stick into the centre of each one and freeze.

Melt chocolate in microwave or on top of a double boiler and cool to desired consistency.

Swirl ice-cream balls through cooled melted chocolate and quickly dip in a plate of small sweets.

Return to freezer until ready to serve. Can be made several days ahead.

Makes 12.
