Time 4h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pint vanilla ice cream, melted
2 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
Pinch salt
1 cup frozen cherries, thawed
6 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
1/2 cup chopped pistachios
Green food coloring

Steps:

  • Combine the melted ice cream, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk and salt in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.

  • Add half of the remaining plain whipped cream mixture to a second smaller bowl and fold in the cookies. Spread evenly on top of the cherry layer.
  • Add the pistachios and a few drops of green food coloring to the remaining plain whipped cream mixture and mix until the coloring has dissolved. Spread on top of the cookie layer.

VALERIE'S SPUMONI

Categories     dessert

Time 10h35m

Yield 9 to 12 slices

Number Of Ingredients 9

Nonstick cooking spray
15 chocolate wafers
2 tablespoons dark chocolate sauce
1 pint chocolate-chocolate chip gelato or ice cream, such as Talenti Double Dark Chocolate
1 pint vanilla bean gelato or ice cream
1/2 cup Amarena cherries, halved (see Cook's Note)
3 tablespoons Amarena syrup
1 drop red food coloring, optional
1 pint pistachio gelato or ice cream

Steps:

  • Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch aluminum loaf pan with cooking spray. Line the pan with plastic wrap on all sides, leaving a 2-inch overhang; the cooking spray will help the plastic stick directly to the sides of the pan.
  • In a food processor, pulse the chocolate wafers until very fine, like sand. Add the chocolate sauce and pulse a few more times until the mixture comes together. Pour into the prepared loaf pan and firmly press into the bottom of the pan to create a crust. Freeze for 30 minutes to set.
  • Meanwhile, remove the chocolate-chocolate chip gelato from the freezer to soften. After 30 minutes, remove the loaf pan from the freezer and spread the chocolate gelato over the crust; use a small offset or rubber spatula to spread the gelato into a flat, even layer. Return the loaf pan to the freezer for another 30 minutes. Meanwhile, let the vanilla bean gelato soften at room temperature.
  • When the vanilla gelato has softened, transfer it to a bowl and stir in the sliced Amarena cherries, the Amarena syrup and the red food coloring if using. Mix until the cherries are evenly dispersed and the food coloring is completely incorporated. Remove the loaf pan from the freezer and evenly spread the cherry gelato over the chocolate gelato. Place back in the freezer for at least 1 hour more; it takes longer for the cherry layer to set.
  • Thirty minutes before the cherry layer is set, remove the pistachio gelato from the freezer to soften. When softened, spread in an even layer over the cherry gelato; the pistachio layer should come up nearly to the top of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze overnight.
  • When ready to serve, remove the plastic wrap from the top of the pan and invert the spumoni onto a cutting board. Gently lift the loaf pan away and remove the remaining plastic wrap. Slice the spumoni into 3/4-inch slices, using a chef's knife dipped in warm water; dip the knife in the warm water between each slice. Serve immediately.

Tips for Making Spumoni Sundae Slices:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the final product will be. It's important to use full-fat dairy products, fresh fruits, and good quality chocolate.
  • Make sure the ice cream is firm before slicing it. If the ice cream is too soft, it will be difficult to slice and will fall apart. Place the ice cream in the freezer for at least 4 hours before slicing.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the ice cream. A dull knife will tear the ice cream and make it difficult to get clean slices. If you don't have a sharp knife, you can run it under hot water for a few seconds to warm it up, then wipe it dry before slicing the ice cream.
  • Be patient. It takes time to make spumoni sundae slices, but it's worth it. Don't rush the process and take your time to make sure each step is done correctly.

Conclusion:

Spumoni sundae slices are a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning, you can make spumoni sundae slices that everyone will love. Here are some additional tips for making spumoni sundae slices:
  • If you don't have time to make your own ice cream, you can use store-bought ice cream. Just make sure to choose a good quality ice cream that is firm enough to slice.
  • You can use any type of fruit you like in your spumoni sundae slices. Some popular choices include strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and bananas.
  • You can also add other ingredients to your spumoni sundae slices, such as nuts, chocolate chips, or whipped cream.
