I never wanted to look really hot but today I'm going to tell you about the fantastic dessert I tried last day. It was epic and sooo easy to prepare! Guess what?
A typical sundae is made from ice cream, but did you know that there are other types of sundaes as well? There are milkshake sundaes, cupcake sundaes, and even yogurt sundaes! They all have some of the basic similarities: sauce, crushed nuts or sprinkles, and whipped cream. Whichever sundae you choose to make, you are certain to end up with something delicious!
Making a Classic Ice Cream Sundae
1
Pour 2 ounces (60 milliliters) of sauce or syrup into the bottom of your dish. Chocolate syrup is a popular choice, but you can use other sauces or syrups too, such as: caramel, butterscotch, or strawberry. If you are using a non-fruit sauce (such as caramel), heat it in the microwave for a few seconds to get it nice and hot.
For best results, use a sundae dish. A regular dessert bowl will also work, however.
2
Add 2 scoops of ice cream. The traditional ice cream sundae uses vanilla ice cream, but you can use other flavors as well, such as cookies-and-cream or even strawberry.
3
Drizzle 2 ounces (60 milliliters) of sauce or syrup over the ice cream. You can use the same flavor of sauce or syrup as before, or experiment with a different flavor. Keep in mind that some flavors work better together than others. A classic combination is chocolate and caramel, for example.
4
Add the final scoop of ice cream, the rest of your sauce, and any desired toppings. Chopped walnuts or sprinkles are classic ice cream sundae toppings, but you can also add more creative ones as well! Here are some tasty ideas to get you started:
Crushed cookies
Crushed candies
Candy, such as mini M&Ms, gummi bears, chocolate chips, etc.
Mini marshmallows
Other chopped nut, such as peanuts, pecans, hazelnuts, cashews, etc.
5
Swirl on some whipped cream. You can use homemade whipped cream and a piping bag, or you can use the kind that comes in a can with a nozzle.
6
Top it off with a maraschino cherry. For a fancier touch, you can also add in a wafer triangle or wafer straw. If you don't have any maraschino cherries on hand, you can use a small strawberry instead; it will give you a similar look!

Making an Ice Cream Sundae Milkshake
1
Add the ice cream, milk, and vanilla extract into the blender. To make this into a smoothie, use ½ cup (125 grams) of plain yogurt instead.
2
Blend the milkshake until it is smooth. If the milkshake is too thick for you, add some more milk. If it is too thin, add some more ice cream. Be sure to blend the milkshake well after each addition.
3
Pour a few tablespoons of chocolate sauce into the bottom of a tall glass. For a fancier touch, you can drizzle the sauce down the sides of the glass. If you want to get really traditional, use hot fudge sauce instead.
4
Pour the milkshake into a tall glass. If this is too much for you, you can divide this between two glasses and share it with a friend.
5
Add a swirl of whipped cream on top. You can use the store bought kind that comes in a can, of you can make your own whipped cream and pipe it on with a piping bag.
See ya,
