Method

1. Start by adding sugar and water to a pan and bring to the boil.
2. Next, semi-whip the double cream and vanilla extract until you form soft peaks.
3. Whisk together your egg yolks until pale and creamy, then slowly add your sugar water mixture.
4. Whisk this mixture again until it has doubled in size.
5. Fold in the cream and vanilla mixture until it is fully mixed together.
6. Finally, serve up into glasses (tumblers or cocktail glasses work well) and leave to set in the freezer for 12 hours.
7. Once set, you can customise however you please. A drizzle of caramel, nuts or broken biscuit works a treat!
