Step-by-step

  1. Put 4 glasses into the freezer and leave them for several hours so that they get ice cold before using. Crush half of the shortbread biscuits.
  2. Put 2 tbsp strawberry sauce into the bottom of each glass, then place a shortbread biscuit on top, to separate the liquid at the bottom from the other ingredients.
  3. Add a layer of ice cream and then follow with alternating layers of fresh fruit, crushed shortbread, strawberry sauce and ice cream until the glasses are full, finishing with crushed shortbread and a few fresh berries.
  4. Top each knickerbocker glory with a chocolate flake and serve straight away.
