Method:

Refreeze the scoops of icecream. When hard, roll in the crushed crisps and coconut. Freeze, until ready to serve.

To make the toffee, place sugar and water in a large, microwave-proof glass bowl. Microwave on high for 2 minutes.

Stir to dissolve sugar. Continue microwaving for 3-4 minutes until liquid is light golden. Remove - the toffee will continue to colour on standing.
