Place 45 ml of the milk in a small bowl and sprinkle with gelatine. Leave to dissolve for a few minutes.

Put the remaining milk in a pan with the cream and sugar and heat gently while stirring, until almost boiling.

Remove the pan from the heat, add the gelatine to the cream mixture and whisk until dissolved.

Leave to cool for 5 minutes, then stir in the Frangelico.

Pour the mixture into the prepared moulds and chill until set (about 4 hours).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1449498797021{padding-top: 10px !important;}”]
