Fantasy Sundae Recipes

Steps:

• Toast the walnuts in a medium saute pan over medium heat, tossing frequently, until darkened and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool, then roughly chop.
• Line an 8-inch square cake pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides. Coat lightly with cooking spray.
• Combine the chocolate and condensed milk in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is thick and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add the marshmallow creme and butter and stir until completely combined and no streaks remain. Stir in the walnuts until evenly dispersed.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared cake pan. Smooth with a rubber spatula into an even layer. Refrigerate until firm, 2 to 3 hours.
• Use the foil overhang to remove the fudge from the pan. Cut into small squares. The fudge can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 5 days.

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.

Steps:

• Combine raspberries and Grand Marnier in blender until smooth. Add sugar to taste. Transfer to a covered bowl and refrigerate.
• Scoop ice cream into bowls. Spoon fruit over ice cream and spoon raspberry sauce over fruit.
