Easy Five Ingredient Semifreddo Recipe

If you’re low on ingredients, you can probably whip up this messy beauty from the contents of your freezer/pantry. It sliced beautifully and the next time I make, I will incorporate a splash of almond extract to balance the cherries and serve with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt, which really, should be obligatory on top of any dessert.

Jamie Oliver’s Five Ingredient Semifreddo

  1. 2x Crunchie bars, chopped finely (plus extra for any topping)
  2. 200g chopped cherries (plus extra for any topping)
  3. 100g toasted hazelnuts, chopped (plus extra for any topping)
  4. 4 eggs
  5. 600ml double cream
  1. Place a metal bread loaf pan in the freezer while creating the semifreddo.
  2. Separate the eggs, whites in one bowl, yolks in another.
  3. Whip egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
  4. In a third bowl, whisk the double cream until soft peaks form.
  5. Quickly whisk together the egg yolks and then fold them into the egg whites gently, trying not to lose volume.
  6. Fold the whipped cream into the egg mixture.
  7. Fold in the chopped Crunchie bars, cherries, and hazelnuts.
  8. Transfer into the frozen bread pan and allow to freeze overnight.
  9. When serving, top pan with serving platter and invert- it should slide right out.
  10. Garnish with additional toppings as desired.
