Who could say no to this memorable dessert? It's delightfully rich and creamy, fruity and spicy. Joanna thinks it's too creamy.

Ingredients:

600ml (1 pint) thickened cream (whipping cream)
1 cup mixed dried fruit
200g (about 7oz) condensed skim milk
155g (5oz) dark cooking chocolate
90g (3oz) glace cherries, halved
60g (2oz) flaked almonds, lightly toasted
¼ cup Amaretto liqueur OR brandy
¾ teaspoon mixed spice

Method:

Soak mixed dried fruit in liqueur for at least an hour -- preferably overnight.

Break chocolate into small pieces and melt in microwave on HIGH for 1 minute 45 seconds, or in heat-proof bowl over simmering water.

Whip the cream -- not too much, you don't want to make butter. Stir in condensed milk and melted chocolate. Add mixed fruit, glace cherries, nuts and mixed spice. Stir thoroughly. Freeze in a two-litre container.

Now for the hardest part: be patient. You'll need to wait at least eight hours before it's ready to enjoy.
