  3. Turn out onto a clean work surface and roll out into a dough. Press the dough evenly into a 16cm (6 1/4 inch) cake tin and place in the freezer for 30 minutes.

  5. Remove the base from the freezer and pour in the filling, using a spatula to smooth it over. Return to the freezer for 30 minutes, or the fridge for one hour, until set.
  6. Top with fresh berries and serve.
  7. This will keep for up to one week in the fridge, and two weeks in the freezer.
