Cooking instructions

* Step 1

If raspberries are fresh, pop them in the freezer. Remove ice-cream from freezer. Combine dried fruit with amaretto and then spend 10 minutes chopping glacé cherries and bashing the nuts in to good sized pieces (not too fine), and zesting half a lemon

* Step 2

Now the fruit should have absorbed most of the alcohol, the raspberries will be chilled or frozen and the ice-cream will have softened but not melted. Turn the ice-cream in to a large bowl and mix with a spoon to break it up a little

* Step 3

Add all the ingredients to the ice-cream and fold in, being careful to not over-work.

* Step 4

Spoon mix back in to original tub. You will need a second tub to fit it all in. Freeze immediately. Best left overnight. Will keep in freezer for 2 months.
