Method
- Put the prunes in a bowl, cover with the amaretto and set aside to soak for 20 mins. Drain, reserving the amaretto, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, mix the breadcrumbs, brown sugar and spices, then put half in a large, dry frying pan. Toast over a low heat for 7-8 mins, stirring constantly, until crisp. Repeat with the remaining breadcrumbs, sugar and spices; set aside to cool.
- Put the egg yolks and icing sugar in a large bowl and beat with an electric whisk for 3-4 mins until fluffy. Stir in the honey, then whisk in the mascarpone and quark, a little at a time, until fully incorporated.
- In a separate non-plastic bowl, use an electric whisk to whisk the egg whites for 2 mins to form stiff peaks. Gently fold into the mascarpone mix and stir until fully combined.
- Divide half the breadcrumbs between 6 glasses. Top with 1 tbsp prunes, ½ tbsp amaretto and 2 tbsp mascarpone mixture. Repeat the layers, reserving 2 tbsp breadcrumbs. Top with the almonds, chocolate shards, reserved breadcrumbs and a drizzle of honey.
