- 1-2 Teaspoons per serving, overproof alcohol of choice to flambè
Do

Prepare the Classic Sponge Cake batter and bake at least 1/3 of it in a Swiss Roll tin. Cool it completely before cutting circles out of it per serving as video directs.
- 2
Prep all other ingredients as recipes direct.
- 3
Freeze the ice cream in either a mould, or use a round scoop to get a satisfactory sized ball of ice cream.
- 4
Assemble the sponge with ice cream on top and keep in the freezer whilst you make the meringue.
- 5
Just prior to serving, heat a small amount of the alcohol in the microwave for maximum of 10 seconds, keeping an eye on it.
- 6
Pipe the prepared meringue on top of the ice cream, light the warmed alcohol in a metal spoon using a gas lighter or similar. Tip the flaming alcohol over the meringue and let it toast the meringue to taste. If you need to, add a few more toasty highlights using a kitchen torch. Serve immediately as the ice cream will start to melt pretty quickly.
