Description: Nesselrode Cream Pudding A favourite of the Victorian Family, this Christmas dessert was rich and alcoholic - what more do you want? It can be made quite easily these days, and makes a lovely alternative to Christmas Pudding. You will need: 240 g tin of chestnuts or 25 fresh chestnuts 100 g brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 50 g glace cherries 50 g mixed peel Zest of half a lemon 4 sheets of gelatine (soaked in cold water) 500 ml whipping cream How to do it: Place the chestnuts in a pan with half the quantity of sugar and water just to cover. If using fresh chestnuts, peel and boil for 3 minutes before adding the sugar. Simmer for 5 minutes (15 if using fresh). Place the gelatine infold water to soften. Heat 300 ml of the cream and add the rest of the sugar and the lemon zest and vanilla essence and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to cool. Puree the chestnuts, mix the gelatine into the infused cream, stir in the rest of the ingredients, including the rest the cream which is lightly whipped. Mix well and pour into a greased mould and place in the fridge overnight.
