Easy Almond Tortoni Recipe
Ingredients Â
- 1 Egg white.
- ¼ cup Confectioner’s sugar.
- 1 cup Heavy cream.
- 1 tsp Almond essence.
- 1 cup Almond macaroons (crumbs).
- ½ cup Ground almonds.
- 6 Cherries (chopped, red).
- 6 Cherries (chopped,green).
- ¼ cup Silvered almonds.
- 4 Cherries (for garnishing).
InstructionsÂ
- Using a small bowl, beat the egg white until you feel that it is now foamy. Once the foam appears, slowly put in the sugar and start beating it until you see it becoming thick and glossy. That is when you set it aside.
- In another larger bowl, whip the heavy cream that you have and then be very careful when putting in the almond essence, macaroon crumbs, chopped cherries (both red and green), as well as ground almonds. Mix them and then add the other mixture into this bowl.
- Take out eight identical baking cups of medium size in which you bake muffins and spoon out the mixture from the bowl. Using the slivered almonds, sprinkle them on top. You will then cover these baking cups with plastic wrap first and then aluminum foil and then place it in the freezer overnight.
- Before you serve the almond tortoni, make sure to let it sit outside at room temperature for approximately 5 minutes and then serve it after you garnish it with halves of cherries.

How to Store Almond Tortoni?
Storing a tortoni might not be as easy as a lot of other desserts may be. This is because it involves heavy cream, which can go bad even if it is stored in the refrigerator. However, it can rest inside the fridge for a couple of days as long as the temperature is maintained properly. Similarly, you can also put it in the freezer for a couple of months and defrost it before use.
Tips for Making the Best Almond Tortoni
Making a tortoni is not an extremely difficult task. This is because it does not involve baking but focuses on using good ingredients and letting their taste enhance. In this regard, it is essential to use quality products only to ensure the best taste. Preparing the ingredients at home helps in making top-quality and delicious Tortoni.
Similarly, when using heavy cream, try to go for new options rather than full versions of the cream. Although most people tend to use the packets brought forth in retail, I have personally experienced that the overall taste of the desserts increases manifold when you seek completely fresh and organic options to put into the item.
it is also important to ensure that the nuts and cherries you put into the dessert are completely fresh and perfectly washed so that the dessert comes out to its best version.
