First thing’s first. Preheat your oven to 160°C/Fan 150°C/320ºF and spread the chopped hazelnuts out on a small baking tray. When the oven is preheated, pop the hazelnuts into the oven to toast for about 5-10 minutes until they smell fragrant and turn a darker brown. Set to one side to cool until needed.

Biscuit base instructions

To make the base, melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave in 10 second intervals, swirling a little between each blast.

Next tip the Oreos into the food processor, fillings and all. Blitz them to a fine crumb and pour in the melted butter. Blitz briefly until it starts to clump together.

Then tip the mixture out into your round baking tin and press firmly into the base and sides with the back of a spoon. Pop into the freezer to firm up while we make the filling.

In a small glass or bowl, weigh in the corn flour then pour over a little cream. Give it a stir. Don’t worry if it clumps, it will be fine I promise.

Then turn the heat up to medium and stir constantly using a whisk.

Bring it to the boil and simmer for 3-4 minutes until it’s nice and thick. Make sure to stir constantly so it doesn’t catch on the bottom of the pan.

Hi Barb. I've just updated the post to include US measurements etc. I would say UK double cream is more akin to US heavy cream. Hope this helps! Emma x

What can I use in place of double cream? I’m in the US and don’t think we have that where I am.

Hi Abby. I believe heavy cream is the closest substitute you have in the US. Thanks, Emma x
