HOT FUDGE AND SALTED CHOCOLATE BITS SUNDAE



Hot Fudge and Salted Chocolate Bits Sundae image

Sundaes are the chamber music of the dessert world. Their composition and construction follow the contours of grand works, but mostly they're played out in miniature, their delights designed to be shared by a duet or an audience of one, long spoon in hand. The composition of this sundae is classic. There's ice cream - the flavors of your choice in whatever quantities you want; sauce -homemade hot fudge sauce based on dark chocolate (not chips, please); fresh whipped cream; and two different add-ins, toasted slivered almonds and chopped chocolate bits. It's the bits that are the big surprise - they're bittersweet chocolate and salt, melted together, frozen and then cut into morsels. The salt is unexpected, but not dissonant - it's what brings out the best in the sundae's other players.

Categories     ice creams and sorbets, dessert

Time 20m

Yield 4 sundaes.

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces bittersweet chocolate (not chips), finely chopped
3/4 teaspoon fleur de sel (or 1/2 teaspoon sea or kosher salt)
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate (not chips), finely chopped
3/4 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 tablespoons sugar
About 3/4 cup toasted slivered almonds
1 pint coffee (or favorite flavor) ice cream
1 pint vanilla (or favorite flavor) ice cream
Lightly sweetened whipped cream

Steps:

  • To make the bits: Line a pie plate with plastic wrap. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler or on low power in a microwave. Add the salt, stir to blend and then, using a spatula, spread the chocolate on the plastic, making a layer that's 1/8-inch thick (shape doesn't matter). Press a piece of plastic wrap against the surface and freeze for at least 45 minutes. When you're ready to make the sundaes, chop the chocolate into bite-size bits.
  • To make the sauce: Put the chocolate, cream, corn syrup and sugar in a medium pan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the chocolate melts and comes to a light simmer, about 5 minutes. Still stirring, let it burble for a minute or two, then scrape it into a heatproof container. Use immediately, or cover and refrigerate until needed.
  • To make the sundaes: If necessary, warm the fudge sauce in a double boiler, or microwave on low. For each sundae, sprinkle some salted chocolate bits and almonds in the bottom of a bowl, snifter or sundae glass. Top with a scoop or two of coffee ice cream, some hot fudge sauce, almonds and bits. Finish with a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream, fudge sauce, whipped cream, almonds and chocolate bits. Serve immediately with a long spoon.

GOTHAM BAR AND GRILL'S HOT FUDGE SUNDAE



Gotham Bar and Grill's Hot Fudge Sundae image

This hot fudge sundae is nothing close to what you grew up with. That's a good thing. Here, you'll mix up a dreamy concoction of cream, bananas, rum and frozen Heath bars, run it through an ice cream maker, and then douse it in a rich chocolate-butter sauce. You can't lose.

Categories     ice creams and sorbets, dessert

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 cups milk
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
6 egg yolks
1/4 cup heavy cream
3 medium ripe bananas
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons dark rum
3 Heath bars, frozen, then broken into pieces
4 1/2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
1 1/2 tablespoons butter
2/3 cup water
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1/8 cup milk

Steps:

  • To make the ice cream, combine the milk, a quarter cup of sugar and the vanilla bean in a saucepan. Over medium-high heat, bring the milk to a boil and let the sugar dissolve. Remove from the heat and let it sit for five minutes to infuse flavors. Then remove the vanilla bean.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks with the remaining sugar. Pour the milk mixture into the egg yolk mixture and blend. Pour this mixture into the saucepan and return the pan to the heat.
  • Heating over medium high, stir the mixture continuously for about three minutes, until it coats the back of a spoon. At this point, remove the pan from the heat immediately, add the heavy cream and blend. Strain the custard into a bowl and place it over an ice bath to cool, again stirring continuously. Once cool, strain it into a bowl and place in the refrigerator.
  • Puree the bananas with the lemon juice. Add the puree and rum to the custard. Strain the mixture again.
  • Pour the custard mixture into an ice cream maker and process according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Remove the frozen ice cream from the machine and stir in the Heath bars until they are scattered throughout the ice cream. Place in the freezer until you are ready to assemble the sundaes.
  • To make the fudge sauce, melt the chocolate and butter in the top part of a double boiler over medium heat. In the meantime, combine the water, sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan and cook until it reaches the soft-ball stage (234 degrees).
  • Whisk the chocolate-butter mixture together with the sugar syrup until blended. Then blend in the milk. Keep the hot fudge in a warm water bath until you are ready to assemble the sundaes. Leftover sauce can be covered and refrigerated for several weeks. When ready to use, reheat in the top half of a double boiler.
  • Layer slices of ripe bananas, hot fudge sauce and ice cream in large Pilsener glasses.

Tips:

  • Use good quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your sundae bars.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bars tough.
  • Bake the bars until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape.
  • Serve the bars with your favorite toppings. Classic toppings include hot fudge, whipped cream, and cherries.

Hot fudge sundae dessert bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover cake mix.
