Baileys & white chocolate parfait

We had friends over for dinner a few weeks ago and one of them is a totally fussy so and so with food. It causes great amusement as often we've said that we'll have a curry and she can have beans on toast ! Anyway, this time we found a common ground and I made this for pudding. It's very rich, really you only need small slices. The original recipe says serves 4 but I don't think even I could manage that !

BAILEYS & WHITE CHOCOLATE PARFAIT
serves 6-8


100g broken white chocolate
250ml fresh vanilla custard
3tbsp Bailey's Irish cream
142ml double cream

Melt the chocolate in a bain marie, heat the custard and combine with the chocolate. Allow to cool to room temperature then add the Baileys. Whip the cream lightly and then fold into the mixture.

Pour into a small loaf tin that has been lined with clingfilm and freeze until solid. 

To serve turn out of the tin and slice. Serve with raspberries/ raspberry coulis to cut through the richness.
