1 For the ice cream: Mix together the milk, condensed milk and vanilla until well combined, then churn in an ice-cream machine or put into the freezer to set. If using a freezer, after one hour, remove and mash with a fork. Repeat every hour to stop large ice crystals forming. The ice cream should set in 4-5 hours.

Roll into 20 large balls, almost the size of a golf ball. Press down on them with the base of your hand or the back of a spoon to flatten. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 min, until crispy and cooked through. leave to cool on a wire rack before storing in a container.

3 To sandwich together: Cut rounds the same size as the biscuits out of the ice cream. sandwich each ice cream round between 2 biscuits and serve.
