This is a great pudding to rustle up at the very last minute for the two of you. We used amaretti biscuits but digestives will do just as well. Ring the changes with the fruit, too. We’ve used raspberries and strawberries but blackberries and blueberries taste just as good, too. Amaretto is a sweet, almond-based, Italian liqueur but you can use kirsch (German fruit brandy) instead.

Ingredients

60g amaretti biscuits, lightly crushed
150ml double cream
