For as long as I can remember, every November my mum would make a plum pudding, long enough before Christmas to allow the flavors to strengthen (though you can start it a week before Christmas and still have outstanding results). The Christmas smells would waft through the house, and myself and my brother Jim would start a chorus of carols. Happy plum pudding memories.

In any Irish kitchen there is always a stale piece of soda bread left over in the bread bin, which is a great excuse to make soda bread ice cream. Roasting the bread crumbs with the brown sugar creates little crunch speckles throughout. The Irish cream Liquor adds another depth of coffee and caramel flavour and a silky texture. You can leave this out if you prefer, but it really is delicious.
