CHRISTMAS PUDDING GLACE
 
Ingredients...
400g. Xmas pudding made well in advance
4dl Double cream
200g. sugar
4 eggs
A little water.
 
The quantity of the Xmas pudding depends on one's taste, according to whether you would like the iced pudding to be more or less dense.

Shred the Xmas pudding by hand or in food processor. Beat the cream to soft peaks and put in fridge.
Separate  the white from the yolks and put in two different bowls. Melt the sugar with very little water (enough to dampen it) and cook on small heat until it forms tiny bubbles.  Dip tweezers or scissors in the sugar and open them, it should form a thread.

Meanwhile beat the yolks with a dash of hot water   until pale and fluffy. Beat the whites until it forms very soft fluffy peaks. Pour half the hot sugar solution on the whites and beat vigorously but just enough to mix well leaving the mixture still fluffy. Beat the other half of the sugar with the yolks again - vigorously until velvety.
Cool those two mixtures in the fridge until cold. Then mix the xmas pudding with the yolk, add the cream and add all three to the whites stirring very delicately. Put in individual moulds or in a big pudding dish, and freeze over night.
