Italian Hot Fudge Sundae Recipes

Steps:

• Add the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and cinnamon to a large chilled glass bowl. Mix with a hand mixer or whisk to medium peaks. Set aside in the fridge.
• Whisk together the hot fudge and ancho chile powder in a pot. Heat over medium-low heat until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add 2 tablespoons dulce de leche to the bottom of each sundae bowl and top with 3 to 4 scoops vanilla ice cream. Add 1/4 cup hot fudge sauce on top and dollop generously with the whipped cream. Garnish each with 2 churro sticks.

Steps:

• Whisk the cream, sugar, and corn syrup in a large, heavy-bottomed pot set over medium heat until dissolved, 1 minute. Whisk in the chocolate and salts and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally to avoid scorching the bottom, 40-45 minutes. Toward the end of the cooking time, the chocolate mixture will begin to separate, with the oil on top of the solids. This is, in fact, what you're looking for. Turn off the heat.
• With the heat off, add the butter and vanilla to the separated chocolate mixture. Whisk to bring the fudge together, 1-2 minutes. It'll be smooth, silky, and homogeneous. If it's very thick, you can purée it in a food processor, adding water 1 tablespoon at a time, until it's smooth. Makes 4 cups. (Can be stored in the refrigerator up to 6 months. For gift-giving, spoon cooled fudge into Mason jars with tight-fitting lids, and include a reminder to refrigerate.)
• Sundae assembly: Pour 1 tablespoon cherry juice into the bottom of a sundae glass. Add 2-3 scoops of ice cream, followed by 2-3 tablespoons (or more!) of hot fudge. Stir some cherry juice into the whipped cream and spoon it on top. Finish with pistachios, a drizzle of cherry juice, and two cherries. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine sugar and cocoa; stir in milk. Add butter. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Add marshmallows; cook until melted. Remove from the heat stir in vanilla. Serve with ice cream. Top with nuts and cherries if desired.

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:

• Bring 2/3 cup of cream and espresso to a simmer. Remove from burner and add chocolate. Stir until smooth.
• Beat remaining cup of cream. Add powdered sugar (a tablespoon at a time), and almond extract or amaretto in a mixing bowl and beat until peaks form.
• Scoop the ice cream into sundae dishes.
• Top with chocolate sauce, whipped almond cream, and nuts. Garnish with cherry.

Steps:

• Put everything except the vanilla in a pot and bring it to a boil, then turn down to a simmer. Continue cooking until it looks like it is broken and separating; this will take about 30 minutes. Take it off the heat, whisk in the vanilla, and then blend it with a hand blender to smooth it out. Chill until ready to serve then heat it up.
• Pour over scoops of ice cream, topped with whipped cream, and chopped peanuts.

Steps:
