Ice Cream Bomb
Ingredients
- 2 pints Mango Sorbet, recipe follows
- 1 1/2 pints good raspberry sorbet, softened
- 1 pint good strawberry ice cream, softened
Directions:
- Freeze an 8-inch bowl. When it’s cold, place the mango sorbet in the bowl and press it against the sides of the bowl.
- If you have a 6 1/2-inch bowl the same shape as the 8-inch bowl (such as from a set of nesting bowls), cover it with plastic wrap and press it into the sorbet to make the layer even.
- Freeze the sorbet for 30 minutes or until firm.
- Remove the 6 1/2-inch bowl.
- Spread an even layer of softened raspberry sorbet on top of the mango sorbet (a 4 1/2-inch nesting bowl wrapped in plastic wrap helps with this) and freeze for another 30 minutes or until firm.
- Remove the 4 1/2 inch bowl.
- Finally, spoon in enough softened strawberry ice cream to fill the bowl.
- Freeze until hard.
- To unmold, dip the bowl up to the rim in warm water.
- Run a knife around the edge to loosen the bombe and unmold upside down onto a flat plate.
- You may need to run a flexible metal spatula along the edge of the bombe to release it.
- Freeze until ready to serve.
- Serve in wedges.
