Frozen Orange Custard & Blackberry Sauce image

A refreshing and delicious Spanish dessert. Although it's called a custard, it is more like a sherbet. COOK TIME IS FREEZING TIME IN AN ICE CREAM MAKER.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 tsp unflavored gelatin
1/4 c cold water
1/4 c heavy ceam
1 3/4 c orange juice
1 c + 1/2 teaspoon sugar
4 eggs, separated
1/2 tsp orange zest
3 tsp gran torres or grand marnier
BLACKBERRY SAUCE:
1 c blackberry preserves
3 tsp gran torres or grand marnier

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, soften the gelatin in the cold water.
  • 2. In a saucepan, combine the cream and just 1/4 cup of the orange juice. Add the gelatin and place over low heat, stirring, until gelatin has dissolved. Set aside to cool.
  • 3. In a large bowl, beat together 1 cup of the sugar, egg yolks, and orange zest. Gradually add the dissolved gelatin mix, the remaining 1 1/2 cups of orange juice, and the Grand Marnier.
  • 4. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon sugar, until stiff. Fold the egg white mixture into the other mixture.
  • 5. Scoop the mixture into an ice cream machine, or simply freeze in a pretty mold. Freeze completely, covered.
  • 6. Make the topping by combining the preserves and the Grand Marnier.
  • 7. To serve, allow the custard to soften slightly. Unmold or scoop the custard into dessert bowls. Top each serving with some of the blackberry sauce.
