ICE CREAM SUNDAE CONES

Categories     dessert

Time 4h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 waffle cones
1 cup malted milk balls, plus 6 more for the cones
4 large chocolate-covered peanut butter cups, chopped
2 quarts vanilla and/or chocolate ice cream
1/4 cup chocolate fudge sauce
5 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 ounce milk chocolate, chopped
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/2 tablespoons corn syrup or agave syrup
1/2 cup roasted peanuts, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Place a stainless steel bowl in the freezer to chill, about 20 minutes. Set 6 tall glasses on a baking sheet and put a cone in each. Drop a malted milk ball into each cone.
  • Roughly chop the remaining malted milk balls and put in the cold bowl with the peanut-butter-cup pieces and ice cream. Use a metal spoon to smash and stir the candies into the ice cream, working quickly to keep it from melting.
  • Press 1 small scoop of the candy ice cream into each cone. Dot with a heaping teaspoon of fudge sauce and top with 2 generous scoops of the candy ice cream. Freeze the cones (in the glasses) until firm, about 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, melt the semisweet and milk chocolate with the butter and corn syrup in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water), stirring until smooth. Remove the bowl from the saucepan and let sit until the chocolate is cool but still pourable, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove the cones from the glasses and dip the ice cream into the chocolate, swirling to coat. Immediately sprinkle the peanuts over the chocolate; place the cones upright in the glasses and freeze until the chocolate shell is set, at least 1 hour or overnight.

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.

MINT CHOCOLATE BONBONS

Categories     dessert

Time 3h25m

Yield 24 bonbons

Number Of Ingredients 5

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
1 quart chocolate ice cream, softened (or your favorite non-dairy ice cream!)
24 mint chocolate cookies, preferably Grasshoppers
One 7.25-ounce bottle chocolate shell ice cream sauce, store-bought, or 1 cup homemade
1/2 cup chopped mint chocolate candies, preferably Andes

Steps:

  • Spray a 24-count mini muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place an approximately 20-inch-long piece of plastic wrap over the muffin pan, leaving about 4 inches of excess plastic hanging over the ends of the pan. Press the plastic into each cup of the pan, making sure the cups are completely lined with the plastic wrap.
  • Using a small ice cream scoop or tablespoon measure, scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons ice cream into each muffin cup so they are filled to the top. Place a chocolate cookie on top of each ice cream-filled muffin cup and gently press down. Freeze until the ice cream hardens, about 3 hours.
  • Place a wire rack over a baking sheet. Line a second baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Carefully remove the plastic wrap from the muffin pan to release the bonbons from the muffin cups. Place the bonbons cookie-side down on the baking sheet lined with the wire rack. Slowly pour some of the chocolate shell ice cream sauce over about 1 to 2 bonbons at a time to cover completely. Before the sauce hardens, sprinkle the top of the bonbon with the chopped mint candies. The sauce will harden in about 30 seconds, so continue to coat 1 to 2 bonbons at a time before topping them with the chopped candies, until all 24 are coated and topped.
  • Transfer the bonbons from the rack to the parchment-lined baking sheet with an offset spatula or butter knife. If needed, dip the offset spatula in hot water, then use it to remove the bonbons from rack. (The hot spatula will help prevent the chocolate shell from cracking when you remove them.) Store in a resealable container in the freezer until ready to serve, for up to one week.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients you use, the better your bonbons will taste. Look for fresh cream, good-quality chocolate, and your favorite ice cream flavors.
  • Make sure your chocolate is tempered. Tempering chocolate is a process that helps to stabilize the chocolate and give it a smooth, glossy finish. There are two ways to temper chocolate: the traditional method and the microwave method. Instructions for both methods can be found online.
  • Be patient. Making bonbons takes time and patience. Don't rush the process, or you'll end up with subpar results.
  • Have fun! Making bonbons is a fun and creative process. Experiment with different flavors and decorations to create your own unique treats.

Conclusion:

Ice cream sundae bonbons are a delicious and fun treat that is perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little bit of time and effort, you can create delicious bonbons that will impress your friends and family.
