| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Cut the cake to a "hedgehog" shape, tapering to form the head and tail.
|
2. Pour over enough of the wine, sherry or brandy to moisten the cake without making it too damp.
|
3. Cover with the custard. Insert the almonds into the cake to form the hedgehog's prickles.
|
4. Place the cake on a serving dish and pipe whipped sweetened cream as a border.
