- Line a 14cmx21cm loaf pan with a strip of foil or baking paper to cover the base and extend over the two long sides.
- Blend or beat the ricotta and sugar together until smooth. Beat the cream in a small bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Combine the ricotta mixture, nuts and nougat in a large bowl; fold in cream, then raspberries.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared pan, cover with foil and freeze until firm (about 4 to 6 hours).
- Slice parfait then refrigerate for about 30 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly. Serve with my berry compote.
- Berry Compote: Combine 300g raspberries and sugar in a medium pot and cook, stirring, over a low heat, until the raspberries are very soft.
- Push the cooked raspberries through a sieve into a bowl; discard seeds. Just before serving, combine the raspberry puree and fresh berries in a medium bowl.

This ice cream desert is delicious I have made it in Italy lots of times and served it to my Italian friends who love it and ask for the recipe. I tend to use Amaretti or other biscuits that contain nougat as its difficult to buy nougat on its own outside of Christmas in Italy. - 29 Aug 2013
