CLASSIC HOT FUDGE SUNDAE



Classic Hot Fudge Sundae image

There is a reason a hot fudge sundae is such an enduring classic: That combination of warm, rich chocolate fudge mixing with frozen ice cream and melting it slightly is absolutely irresistible. Of course, if you have homemade fudge sauce and homemade ice cream, it gets even better. Vanilla ice cream is the standard here, but feel free to use your favorite flavor, or a combination of flavors. And if you like nuts, by all means use them here. The added crunch is marvelous against all the rich creaminess.

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup light corn syrup or honey
3 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
7 ounces finely chopped bittersweet chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 tablespoon brandy or rum
1 cup chilled heavy cream
1 tablespoon superfine sugar, more to taste
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 pints your favorite flavor ice cream
Chopped toasted nuts, such as almonds, peanuts, or pecans (optional)
Cherries, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring the cream, sugar, corn syrup or honey, cocoa, and salt to a simmer, whisking until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the chocolate and let cook until the chocolate melts. Stir in butter and vanilla or liquor. Let cool slightly. Contrary to its name, hot fudge is best served warm, not piping hot.
  • For assembly, make the whipped cream. Using a whisk or an electric mixer, beat the cream, sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
  • Pour a little fudge sauce into the bottoms of sundae dishes or bowls. Top with ice cream, then more hot fudge, then nuts if using. Cover all with whipped cream and a cherry if you like. Serve.

SIX FOOT SUNDAE

Categories     dessert

Time 7h15m

Yield 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 quart vanilla ice cream
1 quart mint chip ice cream
1 quart strawberry ice cream
2 recipes Dark Chocolate Brownie Bites, recipe follows
Strawberry Sauce, recipe follows, for drizzling
Hot Fudge Sauce, recipe follows, for drizzling
Rainbow sprinkles, for sprinkling
Canned whipped cream, for topping
Maraschino cherries, for topping
Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing the pan
4 sticks (2 cups) salted butter
10 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons vanilla
6 large eggs
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
4 pounds strawberries, hulled
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 lemon, juiced
2 cups sugar
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups dark cocoa powder
2 sticks (1 cup) salted butter

Steps:

  • Several hours before you're ready to assemble the sundae, portion out 12 scoops of each type of ice cream--vanilla, mint chip and strawberry--onto baking sheets (36 scoops total) and freeze them. This will make it much easier to handle.
  • Line the guttering with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  • To assemble, place a layer of Dark Chocolate Brownie Bites in the bottom of the guttering. Top with the ice cream scoops and scatter over more brownie bites. Drizzle with Strawberry Sauce and Hot Fudge Sauce. Sprinkle with rainbow sprinkles. Squirt mounds of whipped cream across the sundae and top each mound with a cherry.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 18-by-13-inch pan (half sheet pan) with cooking spray.
  • In a medium-large saucepan, heat the butter and unsweetened chocolate over low heat, whisking occasionally, until smooth and melted. Sprinkle in the cocoa powder and whisk to combine. Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Stir the sugar and vanilla into the chocolate mixture until just combined. One at a time, stir in the eggs. Gently stir in the flour until halfway incorporated. Add the chocolate chips and stir just until combined.
  • Pour the batter (it will be very thick!) into the prepared pan, spreading to even out the top. Bake for 30 minutes, then check the brownies with a toothpick. If they are overly gooey/messy, return to the oven for 5 to 10 more minutes (just be careful not to burn the edges). Allow to cool completely (important!), then cut into small squares.
  • Place the strawberries, sugar, vanilla and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly, and cook until the strawberries are very soft, a good 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and use a potato masher to completely smush them to smithereens. Pour the mixture into a fine-mesh strainer placed over a bowl. Use a spoon to stir the fruit so the liquid is forced through. Continue until almost all of the liquid is in the bowl. Set the pulp aside.
  • Skim as much foam off the sauce as you can. Pour the skimmed sauce back into the same saucepan, add 1/4 cup of the pulp back in and boil again for 3 minutes over medium-high heat. Skim off any more foam that has formed on the surface, then allow the sauce to cool slightly before pouring it into a pitcher or jar. Refrigerate it to thicken and serve it cold.
  • Combine the sugar, cream, cocoa and butter in a small saucepot over medium heat and cook, stirring, until the butter melts and everything is combined, a few minutes.
  • Transfer to a mason jar and store in the refrigerator. It will harden as it cools so when ready to use, simply reheat in a saucepan over medium-low heat.

DORIS'S SALTY HOT FUDGE



Doris's Salty Hot Fudge image

This recipe came to The Times from Doris Muramatsu, a musician with the band Girlyman. It takes about 15 minutes to make and is particularly terrific over ice cream with some spicy pecans chopped on top. It is also an easily made token of true friendship and cheer: pour some into small jars and give it to friends.

CARAMEL-POPCORN HOT-FUDGE SUNDAES



Caramel-Popcorn Hot-Fudge Sundaes image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Time 3h

Yield Makes 10 sundaes

Number Of Ingredients 19

Nonstick cooking spray
1 tablespoon safflower or coconut oil
1/3 cup popcorn kernels
1 cup salted cocktail peanuts
2 sticks unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 1/2 cups packed light-brown sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon coarse salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 quarts vanilla ice cream, softened
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup light corn syrup
3 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch of coarse salt

Steps:

  • Caramel popcorn: Coat 2 rimmed baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray. Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add popcorn and cover. Cook, shaking pot frequently, until corn has finished popping. Transfer to a large bowl; stir in peanuts.
  • Heat butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring, until sugar is dissolved and butter is melted, 5 minutes. Continue to cook until mixture reaches 290 degrees on a candy thermometer, then remove from heat and quickly stir in vanilla and baking soda, making sure soda is dissolved fully. Drizzle half of caramel over popcorn mixture; pour remainder onto one baking sheet and let cool. Quickly toss popcorn to coat, then transfer to other baking sheet; let cool completely. Break caramel popcorn into bits. Popcorn can be stored in a resealable plastic bag at room temperature up to 5 days.
  • Caramel-chunk ice cream: Finely chop sheet of cooled caramel. Working in 2 batches, soften ice cream with an electric mixer on medium speed. Beat half of chopped caramel into each batch until thoroughly combined. Freeze until firm, 2 hours.
  • Hot-fudge sauce: Heat brown sugar and cocoa in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, whisking to combine. Add cream and corn syrup and whisk until smooth. Cook, whisking occasionally, until mixture thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Stir in chocolate, butter, vanilla, and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until chocolate and butter are melted and sauce is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool slightly. Sauce can be stored in refrigerator up to 5 days; reheat over low heat before serving.
  • To serve, layer ice cream in glasses with warm hot fudge and caramel popcorn.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final product. Use real butter, heavy cream, and good-quality chocolate.
  • Don't overcook the fudge. It should be cooked until it reaches a soft-ball stage, which means that it will form a soft ball when dropped into cold water.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before serving. This will help it to set properly and develop its full flavor.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. You can also freeze the fudge for up to three months.
  • For a special treat, serve the fudge with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh berries.
