5.0

Thick hot fudge sauce spiked with raspberry brandy covers scoops of vanilla ice cream — or any other favorite flavor. The sauce thickens further when it hits the cold ice cream, creating a dessert reminiscent of the one served in old-fashioned ice cream parlors.

Ingredients

3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup half and half
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons framboise eau-de-vie (clear raspberry brandy)
Vanilla ice cream

Preparation

  1. Step 1

Rewarm over low heat, stirring frequently, before serving.)
