Step 1
Wash the damsons and place them in a saucepan with the water and the muscovado sugar. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 10-12 minutes, until the fruit is soft. -
Step 2
Pass the damsons through a sieve into a clean bowl. Use a spatula to help pass as much of the pulp through as possible. You want to trap the stones and the worst of the skins in the sieve. Pop the damson purée into the fridge to chill. -
Step 3
When the damson purée is cold, whisk the cream and icing sugar together until it forms soft peaks. Fold and ripple the damson purée through the cream. Serve immediately, ideally with shortbread.
