Best Six Foot Sundae Recipes

SKILLET COOKIE SUNDAE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cream together the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar in a large bowl. Add the vanilla and eggs, mixing well. Combine the flour, instant coffee, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 3 batches, mixing after each one. Stir in the milk and semisweet chocolate chips.
• Spread the mixture into a 10-inch skillet and bake until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove the skillet from the oven, top the cookie with several scoops of your favorite ice cream, drizzle on some hot fudge and top with whipped cream and a cherry.

RAINBOWS AND UNICORNS SUNDAE

Steps:

• Add the white chocolate chips to a heatsafe bowl. Heat the cream in a saucepan until warm and bubbles begin to form around the edges. Pour the warmed cream over the chocolate chips in the bowl and allow it to sit for 2 minutes.
• Stir the mixture until smooth and divide between 2 small bowls. Color one bowl with a drop of red food coloring to turn the ganache red. Color the other bowl with a drop of blue food coloring to turn the ganache blue. Set the ganache aside while you make the sundae.
• Place the orange sherbet scoop in a glass ice cream dish or bowl followed the strawberry ice cream scoop. Add 2 Rainbow Crispy Treats on top. In the center of the bowl, use 2 spoons to dollop the marshmallow cream onto the ice cream. Nestle in 2 more Rainbow Crispy Treats.
• Spoon the gummy bears onto the marshmallow cream followed by the whipped cream. Top the whipped cream with the pearl sprinkles and the gold and silver dragee. Using a spoon, drizzle the red ganache over the whipped cream followed by the blue ganache. Top the sundae with a cherry!
• Thoroughly grease a straight-sided 9-inch square cake pan with butter.
• Melt the butter in a large, heavy-bottomed pot set over medium heat. Cook, swirling the butter around in the pot, until it foams and turns a medium golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the regular marshmallows and stir until they're completely melted. Add the salt and give it another stir.
• Remove the pot from the heat and pour in the cereal. Gently fold it into the marshmallow until well combined. Next, add the mini rainbow marshmallows and fold them into the mix. Some will melt, but some will remain whole; that is the way you want it.
• Turn the mixture into the buttered cake pan and press flat using a wooden spoon or spatula. Sprinkle with the rainbow sprinkles over the top while it is still warm. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• When the crispy treats are cool, place the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over boiling water. Heat, stirring, until the chocolate is melted and completely smooth. Set aside for a minute to cool.
• Drizzle the white chocolate over the cooled crispy treats and let the chocolate set for 5 minutes. Cut into 1 1/2-inch squares.

BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE SUNDAE

Steps:

• For the blueberry sauce: Combine the blueberries, granulated sugar and 1/2 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil and cook until the berries begin to burst, about 5 minutes. Stir together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, then whisk into the berries. Bring to a boil to thicken the sauce, mashing with a wooden spoon or whisk. Pour into a container and let cool, then refrigerate until completely chilled, about 2 hours.
• For the crumble topping: Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the flour, oats, pecans, granulated sugar, brown sugar and salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Scatter in the butter pieces and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the heavy cream and egg yolks and pulse a few times just to combine.
• Pat the mixture into an 8-by-10-inch rectangle on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until crisp with browned edges, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer the baking sheet to a rack and let cool completely, at least 15 minutes, then crumble.
• For the sundaes: To serve, layer the ice cream and blueberry sauce in tall glasses. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with the crumble topping.

CLASSIC HOT FUDGE SUNDAE

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.

HOT FUDGE MONSTER SUNDAE

Steps:

• Add the vanilla and cookie dough ice cream to a glass ice cream dish or bowl. Top with a generous drizzle of Hot Fudge Sauce and some chopped pecans. Wedge a whole Chocolate Chip Cookie into the dish. Top with whipped cream and a cherry. Enjoy!
• Combine the cream, corn syrup, sugar, butter, cocoa and salt in a pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until smooth.
• Remove from the heat and add the chocolate and vanilla. Stir until combined and smooth. Serve warm over your favorite ice cream or sundae!
• Line 3 baking sheets with parchment.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat on medium speed until just combined. Add the flour, baking soda and kosher salt and mix on low speed until just combined. Remove the bowl from the mixer and stir in the chocolate chunks using a wooden spoon or spatula.
• Use a 1/4-cup scoop to scoop the cookies, making sure to scrape the scoop against the side of the bowl to flatten off the top. Scoop onto the lined baking sheets about 2 inches apart to give them space to spread while baking. Sprinkle a pinch or two of sea salt on top of each cookie dough mound. Refrigerate, uncovered, at least 20 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Bake until golden brown, 17 to 18 minutes. Let the cookies cool and crisp up on the baking sheets.

CHURRO CHIP SUNDAE

Steps:

• For the churro chips: Add 1 to 2 inches vegetable oil to a heavy-bottomed pot. Heat to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, mix together the sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl, then set aside.
• When the oil is ready, add the wonton wrappers in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Cook until golden and crisp, about a minute. Remove the chips and toss with a good amount of the cinnamon mixture; you don't want to skimp! Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers and cinnamon mixture.
• For the sundaes: Add a scoop of each of the ice creams to a bowl. Add some chips around the edge, crushing a few over the top for good measure. Top with the whipped cream, cherries, dulce de leche and sprinkles. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 3 more sundaes.
