CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE SUNDAE

I've saved this to last, and for good reason: it is the ultimate ice cream sundae. Obviously, if you're not a peanut-eater, it won't be for you, but for everyone else it is the stuff of dreams. Last time I made this sauce, I nearly had to make another batch, I'd eaten so much before even getting the ice creams out of the freezer. Talking of which, obviously you should choose whichever flavors of ice cream you want. Even if you are reduced to just plain old, same old vanilla, you have a party right here. I made a jar of this for a friend to take home for her supper recently. As soon as she'd had it she sent a text saying "Bottle that sauce, make millions". Well maybe, but until then, here's the recipe:

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings for very lucky people

Number Of Ingredients 8

2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
2/3 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter (recommended: Skippy)
4 scoops toffee or caramel ice cream
4 scoops chocolate ice cream
4 scoops vanilla ice cream
4 tablespoons or 1/4 cup salted peanuts, roughly chopped or left whole to taste
4 chocolate cigar cookies

Steps:

  • Put all the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and peanut butter into a saucepan and put it on the heat to melt, stirring occasionally. In about 2 minutes you should have your sauce ready. When everything has melted add 3 to 4 tablespoons of boiling water to thin the sauce.
  • Get out 4 sundae glasses and put a scoop of toffee or caramel ice cream in each, followed by 1 of the chocolate and then another of vanilla.
  • Pour over some chocolate peanut butter fudge sauce and sprinkle with salted peanuts.
  • Stick a chocolate cigar cookie in each sundae glass, hand them round and wait for people to weep with gratitude.

Time 1h30m

Yield about 14 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup peanut butter chips
1/2 cup mixed chocolate chips, such semisweet, bittersweet or white chocolate chips
1 pint chocolate-peanut butter ice cream, softened slightly

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat the mixture until light and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the cocoa powder, vanilla, salt and egg and beat again until smooth and combined. Add the flour, peanut butter chips and chocolate chips. Use a rubber spatula to stir until just mixed.
  • Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Scoop out 2-inch balls of dough. Place 14 on each baking sheet. Bake, rotating halfway through, until the cookies are just set around the edges and the tops look dry, about 15 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes on the baking sheets. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • When the cookies are completely cool, scoop a heaping tablespoon of the ice cream onto the flat side of one cookie. Top with another cookie and press together gently. Continue with the remaining cookies and ice cream, freezing the sandwiches as you go.
