Raspberry, Coffee and Salted Caramel Ice-Cream Biscuits Method

1. To make cookies, preheat to 180°C. Stir icing sugar, cocoa powder, and salt in a large bowl; make a well in the centre and gently whisk in egg whites, egg, and butter. Fold in chopped and melted chocolates, cacao nibs and almond meal until just combined. Spoon batter by the tablespoonful onto 2 baking trays lined with baking paper, spaced 10cm apart.

2. Bake, rotating trays once, until cookies are puffed, cracked, and set just around the edges (12 mins).

3. Transfer baking trays to wire racks and let cookies cool on pan (they will firm up).

4. To make coffee ice-cream, combine all ingredients in a stand mixture and beat until combined and slightly thickened (5 mins). Freeze overnight to set.

5. For the other ice-cream flavours, divide vanilla ice-cream into separate bowls and swirl raspberry mixture through one and the caramel sauce through the other. Return ice-cream to containers and refreeze, until firm.

6. Scoop ice-cream and sandwich between two cookies, finish with extra sea salt and serve immediately.
