LIP ZMAKK'IN GYPSY GELATO



Lip Zmakk'in Gypsy Gelato image

The wild gals of Café Zmakk bring to you "Lip Zmakk'in Gypsy Gelato" - a delectable and creamy concoction of cream, amaretto, almonds, marzipan, amoreto biscotti all topped off with sumptuous red fruit! The ingredients represent our team PERFECTLY! French Tart feels flighty and flirty with a tipple of Amaretto, whilst Mom2Rose gets quite nutty when she eats almonds! Katew craves the deep and mysterious feel of marzipan topped with raunchy raspberries; however, AuntWoofieWoof likes to bathe in a bath of double cream with a few strawberries thrown in for good measure! Annisette favours vanilla, because she is pretty strong on her own but likes to enhance the flavours of others. Meanwhile, Chef Pot Pie thinks she should tell you, that she is JUST like an amaretto biscuit, as she's sweet, a little crunchy, and GREAT with coffee! Zurie swings into action with her thin almond wafers - sophisticated and ready to SCOOP up any ice cream within 10 paces! Emily Elizabeth finishes off this delightful delectation with a spoon full of sugar. This creation is brought to you by special delivery. Are YOU wild enough to sample our Lip Zmakk'in Gypsy Gelato? You will need an ice cream maker for this.

Time P1DT2h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

7 ounces marzipan (Almond Paste)
2/3 cup fine sugar
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon almond essence
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups half-and-half
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup amaretto liqueur
1 cup crushed amaretto biscotti
1/4 cup toasted chopped almonds
1/2 cup chopped fresh strawberries
1/2 cup fresh raspberries or 1/2 cup frozen raspberries
almond ice cream wafer, to serve

Steps:

  • Combine the marzipan and sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add eggs one at a time - beating well after each addition. Beat in the almond and vanilla essence and then add the salt.
  • Bring the half-and-half to a gentle simmer in a saucepan, and then slowly beat in the warm half-and-half and the cream into the marzipan mixture - pour it all back into the saucepan and heat over a low heat. Stir it CONSTANTLY until the custard thickens slightly. Be careful NOT to let it boil or the eggs will scramble!
  • Remove from the heat and pour into a bowl and allow to cool. Add the Amaretto liqueur and allow to chill over night or for several hours in the refrigerator.
  • Stir the chilled custard well and freeze in an ice cream maker in 1 or 2 batches, according to the machine's instructions. Add HALF of the crushed amaretto biscotti with half of the toasted chopped almonds when the ice cream is semi-frozen - allow the machine to mix them into the ice cream.
  • Pour the ice cream into a freezer proof container and sprinkle the rest of the amaretto biscotti and almonds on the top, along with the strawberries and raspberries - gently pushing them down into the surface. Freeze for 2 hours for a firmer ice cream or serve straight away for a softer finish, with almond ice cream wafers.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

140g unsalted butter
100g golden caster sugar
1 large egg
250g plain flour , plus extra for dusting
410g can evaporated milk
300g dark muscovado sugar
300g double cream
zest 1 lemon

Steps:

  • To make the pastry, put the butter and caster sugar in a food processor. Add the egg and whizz for 30 secs, then tip in the flour and blitz for a few secs more until the dough just comes together - be careful not to overwork it.
  • Dust your work surface with flour, bring the dough together with your hands and lightly knead, shaping the pastry into a flat disc. Cover with cling film and chill in the fridge for 30 mins. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
  • Roll out the pastry to £1 coin thickness and use to line a deep 23cm tart tin, then return to the fridge for 20 mins or until the pastry is hard. Line the pastry case with baking parchment, fill with baking beans and bake for 20 mins. Remove the baking beans and return to the oven for 5-10 mins until the base is golden and the sides are set.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling. Whisk the milk and sugar together in a stand mixer (or use an electric hand whisk) until light and fluffy, about 20 mins. Pour into the pre-baked pastry case and cook for 15 mins until risen and the surface is tacky. Remove from the oven and leave to cool and set before serving.
  • Pour the cream into a large bowl, add the lemon zest and lightly whip. Serve alongside the tart once cool.
