The easiest and yummiest dessert

If you're running short of time and need to impress with dessert this recipe is for you.

You need:
Vanilla ice cream
Toblerone bar
Shredded coconut
Thickened cream
Meringue nests

Toast 1 cup shredded coconut in heavy based pan or under hot grill. Once it starts to colour watch carefully - it will burn quickly.
Now scoop four ice cream balls and roll into toasted coconut and place on tray lined with baking paper. Put in freezer until you need to serve them.
Take 1/2 cup thickened cream and 200g chopped Toblerone and place in a heat proof bowl. Put the bowl over a pot of simmering water and and stir until it melts smoothly. Put to one side.

When ready to serve take the meringue nests and put the ice cream ball on top of each nest. Pour the warm chocolate sauce over and serve. Your guests will be lining up for more, so maybe have a couple of spares ready!
