Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 8

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons water
1 cup whipping cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup pine nuts, toasted
Coffee ice cream

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Stir sugar and water in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat; boil without stirring until syrup turns deep amber, occasionally brushing down sides with wet pastry brush and swirling pan, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Slowly mix in cream (sauce will bubble vigorously). Add butter; stir over medium-low heat until smooth. Add nuts. Cool slightly. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill. Before continuing, stir over medium heat until warm.)

    Step 2

    Spoon ice cream into bowls. Spoon warm sauce over and serve.
