Preparation
Step 1
Take the ice cream out of the freezer around 15 minutes before you want to use it so that is softens.
Cut out four, large-ish square pieces of wax baking paper.
Place a rounded and fairly generous scoop of ice-cream in the centre of each piece of baking paper.
Step 2
On top and in the middle of this, place your glace cherry or hazelnut. If one hazelnut looks too small, add a couple more very close together.
On top of this, place another scoop of ice cream around the same size of the first.
Step 3
Bring the sides of the baking paper up around the ice cream and quickly mould into a ball shape. Twist the top and tie with string or rubber band. Place in the freezer, positioned so they retain their shape.
Step 4
When it’s time to serve, scatter cocoa powder onto a plate.
Untie the parcel and quickly roll in the powder, making sure it is evenly distributed. Roll into a cup or small bowl and drizzle with topping.
