Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups of dairy-free ice cream
- 1/2 cup of chocolate syrup
- 1/4 cup of chopped nuts
- 1/4 cup of coconut whipped cream
- Cherries for topping
Instructions
- Remove the dairy-free ice cream from the freezer and let it soften for 2-3 minutes at room temperature to make scooping easier.
- Select two clean, chilled sundae glasses or dessert bowls to serve the ice cream.
- Using an ice cream scoop, carefully scoop 1 cup of dairy-free ice cream into each serving glass, creating a smooth, rounded mound.
- Drizzle approximately 1/4 cup of chocolate syrup evenly over each ice cream serving, allowing it to cascade down the sides of the ice cream.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chopped nuts over each sundae, distributing them evenly for consistent crunch and flavor.
- Add a generous dollop of coconut whipped cream (about 2 tablespoons) to the top of each sundae.
- Garnish each sundae with 1-2 fresh cherries placed strategically on top of the whipped cream.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the sundae at its optimal temperature and texture.
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Let your dairy-free ice cream soften slightly at room temperature for 2-3 minutes to achieve the perfect scooping consistency.
- Chill Your Glassware: Place your serving glasses in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before assembling to keep your sundae colder for longer.
- Get Creative with Toppings: While this recipe suggests chocolate syrup and nuts, don't be afraid to experiment with other dairy-free toppings like caramel sauce, fresh fruits, or dairy-free chocolate chips.
- Choose Quality Dairy-Free Ice Cream: Select a high-quality dairy-free ice cream brand that has a creamy texture and rich flavor for the best results.
- Serve Immediately: Dairy-free ice cream can melt faster than traditional ice cream, so assemble and serve your sundae quickly to maintain the perfect texture and presentation.
