Method

  1. Line a 16cm round spring-clip cake tin with baking parchment. Put the flan base in the middle and vertically line the sponge fingers around tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whip the chocolate ice cream until smooth. Pour into the cake tin and spread with a spatula. Place in the freezer for about 10 mins or until slightly set.
  3. Repeat with the raspberry and vanilla ice cream and store in the freezer for 4 hours until very firm.
  4. Remove from the tin and leave for 10 mins before serving. Decorate with chocolate curls.
