easy ice cream sundaes
One of my favourite dessert recipes for last-minute entertaining is making your own ice cream sundaes. For a casual get-together, it’s really a fun way to have every guest build their own sweet treat, ready in minutes. There are a few very easy steps to this recipe.
The real key is toasting slivered almonds (toasting them releases the nutty flavour). Almonds are one of the items I always have on hand in my pantry. I use them in salads and cakes, and they add that perfect crunch atop a velvety bowl of ice cream. I lay them out in an even layer on a baking sheet and toast them at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until golden.
The other elements of this ice cream dessert are some
good quality vanilla bean ice cream and some
chocolate sauce made by simmering heavy cream and pouring it over some dark chocolate chips.
Chocolate Sauce
- 12 ounces of bittersweet chocolate chip (70%)
- 1-1/3 cup of heavy cream
