--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  10      oz            Double cream
     1/2  tsp           Ground cinnamon
   8      oz            Chestnut puree
   1 1/2  oz            Plain or dark unsweetened
                        - chocolate -- chopped
                        Chocolate chips
   2      oz            Caster sugar

Beat the chestnut puree to lighten it. Whip the cream (not stiffly);
fold in cinnamon, chestnut puree, and chocolate. Divide among
four heat-proof ramekins and smooth level.

Chill 1 hour. Preheat the grill to highest setting.

Sprinkle sugar on evenly; grill until bubbling. Leave to cool but
serve within 2 hours to prevent the sugar softening.

The sugar can of course be caramelised using a salamander or
blow-torch.

Yield: 4 Servings
