It's perfect for a barbecue because it can be made the day before, and it will please children and adults alike! Ingredients 4 large eggs pinch of salt 1-1/5 cups Rain's Choice Vanilla Sugar (or substitute regular sugar and 2 teaspoons vanilla paste or 1 tablespoon Rain's Choice pure vanilla extract) 4 cups whipping or heavy cream 3/4 cup milk 3/4 cup heavy cream 1/2 cup melted white chocolate. Cool the mixture thoroughly before blending into this recipe. 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk 10 oz slivered almonds (may be toasted) Instructions Place a large (9 X 5 X 3) glass loaf pan and a large metal mixing bowl in the freezer while you prepare the semifreddo mixture. Separate the egg whites and whisk them with a pinch of salt until they form very stiff peaks. Whisk the yolks for 2 minutes in a different bowl, and then continue whisking as you add the sugar gradually. Add extract or paste if using. Remove the large metal mixing bowl from the refrigerator to use for whipping cream. Whip the cream until soft peaks form. Then fold in the egg whites and yolks. Add the white chocolate, milk and coconut milk, and fold gently until blended. Cover, and place it in the refrigerator. Remove the loaf pan from the freezer. Line loaf pan with a large piece of plastic wrap, leaving plenty of overhang. Cover the bottom of the pan with the almonds. Gently pour semifreddo mixture over the almonds in the loaf pan. Cover the semifreddo mixture with the excess plastic wrap. Freeze overnight. To Serve: Place a flat serving plate on top of the loaf pan. Flip over carefully, then remove the loaf pan and peel away the plastic wrap. Allow the semifreddo to thaw slightly. Garnish with grated c oconut or white chocolate shavings. Use a warmed knife to slice. Note: Semifreddo can be prepared and placed in the freezer up to three days before serving.
