Finely chop the slices of gingerbread using a knife.
Heat the honey in a saucepan. Add the gingerbread then
stir briskly with a spatula to melt the gingerbread and
so that the mixture becomes smooth. Leave to cool.
Whip the chilled cream till it is stiff before adding
it carefully to the cooled gingerbread mixture. Whisk
the egg whites until stiff then add the sugar while continuing
to whisk. Add this mixture to the gingerbread preparation,
delicately lifting as you add.
Melt the butter and brush 4 individual china ramekins
with it. Line the moulds with a strip of buttered greaseproof
paper, letting it overlap by 5 - 6 centimetres.
Pour the mixture into the ramekins up to the top of the
greaseproof paper. Smooth with a spatula. Place the ramekins
in the freezer for at least 8 hours.
Before eating, remove the greaseproof paper and serve
5 minutes after removing from the freezer.
