Mary Berry’s Ginger Ice Cream

by Mary Berry from Mary 90: My Very Best Recipes

Serves 8

You won’t need an ice cream machine to whip up this creamy ginger ice cream topped with stem ginger syrup from Mary Berry . It’s a gorgeous dessert in the warmer months but we also love it as an accompaniment to sticky toffee pudding in the winter. Delicious!

Introduction

Ginger is one of my favourite flavours. This is a new ice cream that I keep in the freezer, perfect as a simple pud for unexpected guests. It’s so easy to spoon into bowls and decorate with stem ginger and syrup. Fresh, creamy and easy!
