Tips:

  • Utilize ripe bananas: Overripe bananas are ideal for creating a moist and flavorful base for the waffles.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough waffles. Gently fold the wet and dry ingredients together until just combined.
  • Cook the waffles on a preheated waffle iron: This ensures that the waffles cook evenly and have a crispy exterior.
  • Keep the waffles warm: Place the cooked waffles in a warm oven or toaster oven to keep them warm and crispy while preparing the rest of the sundae.
  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate used for the ganache and chocolate sauce greatly impacts the overall flavor of the sundae. Opt for a rich and flavorful dark chocolate.
  • Chill the ganache before using: Chilling the ganache allows it to thicken and set, making it easier to drizzle over the waffles.
  • Flambé the cherries carefully: Ensure the cherries are thoroughly coated in liqueur before igniting. Use a long lighter or match to ignite the liqueur, and allow it to burn off completely before serving.

Conclusion:

This indulgent chocolate waffle sundae with flambéed cherries is a delightful dessert perfect for special occasions or a sweet treat. The combination of crispy waffles, rich chocolate ganache, velvety chocolate sauce, and sweet-tart flambéed cherries creates a symphony of flavors and textures that will impress your taste buds.
