Melt the gelatin over a water bath on the stove.

Once melted, add a few spoonfuls of the whisky mascarpone cream, stir together and keep over the water bath until it's warm to the touch.

Add the mascarpone mixture to the whipped cream and partially fold together. Finally, add the gelatin and fold together to form a smooth cream.

**It will be very liquid, but will harden up in the fridge

Remove from heat. Add the butter and stir. Place in the fridge to cool.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 200 Celsius or 390 Fahrenheit.
