1 . Prepare your stock syrup

Place the water, cinnamon stick, sugar and honey in a pan.

De-seed the vanilla pod, keep the seeds to one side for now
but add the skins to the water.

Bring to the boil then simmer for 10 minute. Remove from
the heat then add the white wine and then leave to infuse
for a few hours.

2. Pouch the peaches

Prepare a bowl of water and ice cubes.

Bring a pot of water to the boil. Once boiling gently place the peaches into the water.
Boil for 30 seconds then remove the peaches and plunge them into the ice cold water
. Once completely cold their skins should peel away from the fruit very easily.

Place the peeled peaches in a pan, add the stock syrup and bring to a simmer, continue to simmer
until the peaches have softened. This should take around 15 - 20 minutes.

Once cooked remove from the peaches from the syrup and allow to cool completely.

3. Prepare your cream

Pour the cream into a large bowl, add the vanilla pod seeds and whisk till the cream is
almost fully whipped. Add the icing sugar and Amaretto liqueur and
whisk till fully whipped.

4. Simply assemble and serve

Slice the peaches, then layer as follows; peaches, cream, crushed amoretti biscuits, cream
then top with a whole amoretti biscuits.
