Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pints blackberries
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cassis liqueur
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon cold unsalted butter
Pinch of salt
1 quart vanilla ice cream
1 cup pecans, toasted, cooled and roughly chopped
Freshly whipped cream

Steps:

  • Prepare the blackberries: Combine the blackberries, sugar and cassis in a bowl. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, then crush with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, make the caramel sauce: Combine the cream and vanilla pod and seeds in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Remove from the heat.
  • Whisk the sugar and 1/2 cup water in a medium nonreactive saucepan over high heat. Cook until dark golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the heat and slowly add the vanilla-infused cream (it will splatter), stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Return to the heat and cook until smooth. Remove from the heat, discard the vanilla pod and stir in the butter and salt.
  • For each sundae, place a scoop of ice cream in a parfait glass and top with caramel sauce, blackberries and pecans. Repeat 2 more times and top with whipped cream.
