Ingredients

  • 2 x 100g bars good quality white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 x 300ml pot double cream
  • 8 ripe apricots
  • 2 passion fruit
  • 50g toasted flaked almonds
For the lime syrup
  • zest and juice of 3 limes
  • 2 tbsp icing sugar

Step by step

Get ahead
Make up to the end of step 3 a day ahead, cover and chill. Make the lime syrup a few hours ahead, store at room temperature. You can finish step 5 up to 1 hour before serving.
  1. Tip the chopped chocolate into a mixing bowl. Heat the cream in a pan until bubbles just form around the edge then pour the hot cream over the chocolate, stir to melt.
  2. Stone and chop 4 of the apricots. Halve the 2 passion fruit and scoop out the flesh, mix with the chopped apricots, then divide between 6 glasses.
  3. Divide the barely warm cream mixture among the glasses. Leave to cool, then cover them and transfer to the fridge for 2 hours – they won't set firm, but will have the texture of thick yogurt.
  4. For the syrup, heat the lime zest and juice with the icing sugar and 3 tablespoons water to dissolve the sugar, bubble for a few minutes until syrupy, then cool.
  5. To serve, stone and slice the remaining apricots. Top the creams with the fruit, then add a drizzle of lime syrup and a few toasted flaked almonds to each one.
Chef quote
Full of summer freshness and zesty flavour, these creams are a doddle to make and are ideal for get-ahead summer entertaining
