Ingredients

Scale

Ice Cream Layers

  • 300g coffee ice cream
  • 300g vanilla ice cream
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil, for the tin

Chocolate Sauce

  • 300g dark chocolate, roughly chopped
  • 50g coconut oil

Topping

  • 50g honeycomb or Maltesers, crushed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the tin: Brush a 1.2-litre loaf tin with vegetable oil and line it with cling film to prevent sticking.
  2. Soften ice cream: Leave the coffee and vanilla ice creams out at room temperature for a few minutes until slightly softened for easier spreading.
  3. Make chocolate sauce: Place 250g of the dark chocolate and all the coconut oil into a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water. Stir until melted and smooth, then set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Layer the terrine: Spoon half of the coffee ice cream into the base of the prepared tin and level the surface. Quickly spread over one quarter of the chocolate sauce. Then spoon half the vanilla ice cream on top, followed by another quarter of the chocolate sauce.
  5. Repeat layers: Add the remaining coffee ice cream and spread the remaining chocolate sauce alternating layers, finishing with a layer of chocolate sauce on top. Cover loosely with cling film.
  6. Freeze: Place the terrine in the freezer for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to set completely.
  7. Melt remaining chocolate: Gently melt the remaining 50g dark chocolate over a pan of simmering water.
  8. Serve: Remove the terrine from the tin by lifting the cling film. Turn it out onto a serving plate, drizzle with the melted chocolate, then sprinkle with crushed honeycomb or Maltesers. Slice thickly to serve.

Notes

  • It’s important to work quickly when layering the ice creams and chocolate sauce before they refreeze.
  • Line the tin very well with cling film to make removal easier.
  • Use good-quality dark chocolate for the richest flavor.
  • Honeycomb can be replaced with crushed Maltesers or any crunchy candy of choice.
  • For best texture, serve the terrine shortly after removing from the freezer to avoid melting.
