Ingredients

6	small peaches, peeled, halved, stoned and sliced	6
1/2 lb	seedless grapes, washed	225 g
2 oz	caster sugar	50 g
2 tbsp	brandy (optional)	30 mL
1-1/4 cups	double cream, stiffy whipped	300 mL
3 oz	brown sugar	75 g
	macaroons or langues de chats cookies

Directions

Put the peach slices and grapes into 6 individual ramekin dishes and mix together gently.

Sprinkle with the sugar and brandy, then cover completely with the cream to seal in the fruit: at least 1/2 inch/1.25 cm thick.

Freeze until solid, then wrap in cling film and overwrap in aluminium foil or a freezer bag.

A few hours before serving, unwrap and sprinkle the frozen dessert with brown sugar so that the cream is completely covered with a thin layer of the sugar.

Place under a very hot grill (broiler) for a few minutes until all the sugar has melted and forms a hard crust on top. Remove from the heat and leave to thaw at room temperature.
