PRUNE RING WITH ICE CREAM
Katrinplommonkrans med glass

4 servings

2½ cups boiling water

7 oz prunes
5 gelatin sheets or 2½ teaspoons powdered gelatin
fresh juice from ½ lemon
sugar to taste

For serving and decoration:

2 cups vanilla ice cream
2 oranges

Pour the boiling water over the prunes and soak them for 4 to 8 hours. Soak the gelatin in cold water for an hour or so. Remove the stones from the prunes, save a couple of whole ones for decoration and cut the rest in pieces. Heat up some of the fruit liquid, add gelatin and let it melt. Mix fruit liquid, gelatin and lemon juice, in all approx 2 cups, and sugar to taste.

Put the prunes in a rinsed cake ring (bundt cake pan), pour on the fruit liquid and allow the dessert to set. Unmould the fruit ring, fill the hole in the middle with ice cream and decorate with orange wedges all around and a couple of whole prunes on the top.

You can substitute the water with medium-strong tea.

Enjoy!
