Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten free vanilla ice cream
- 1/2 cup brewed coffee
- 1/4 cup whiskey
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- Whipped cream for topping
- Chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Measure out 2 cups of gluten-free vanilla ice cream, 1/2 cup of brewed coffee, and 1/4 cup of whiskey. Have 1/2 cup of caramel sauce ready, along with whipped cream and chocolate shavings for garnish.
- In a small saucepan, combine the brewed coffee and whiskey. Heat over medium-low heat until the mixture is warm but not boiling, allowing the flavors to meld together. This should take about 5 minutes.
- Once warmed, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the caramel sauce until fully combined. Allow the mixture to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
- While the caramel coffee whiskey sauce is cooling, scoop the gluten-free vanilla ice cream into serving bowls or sundae glasses. Aim for about 1/2 cup of ice cream per serving.
- Once the sauce has cooled slightly, drizzle it generously over the scoops of ice cream in each bowl. Make sure to distribute the sauce evenly among the servings.
- Top each sundae with a generous dollop of whipped cream. This adds a light and creamy texture that complements the rich flavors of the sundae.
- Finish off each sundae by sprinkling chocolate shavings on top for an added touch of elegance and flavor. You can use a vegetable peeler to create shavings from a chocolate bar or use pre-made chocolate shavings.
- Serve immediately while the ice cream is still cold and the sauce is warm. Enjoy your delicious Gluten Free Whiskey Coffee Caramel Sundae!
Tips
- Choose Quality Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for high-quality gluten-free vanilla ice cream and fresh brewed coffee. The better your ingredients, the more delicious your sundae will be!
- Experiment with Whiskey: Different types of whiskey can bring unique flavors to your sauce. Try bourbon for a sweeter profile or rye for a spicier kick.
- Don’t Rush the Sauce: When heating the coffee and whiskey, keep the heat low and allow the flavors to blend. This step enhances the overall taste of your sundae.
- Cool the Sauce: Allow the caramel coffee whiskey sauce to cool slightly before drizzling it over the ice cream. This prevents the ice cream from melting too quickly and ensures a delightful contrast of temperatures.
- Garnish Creatively: Get creative with your toppings! In addition to whipped cream and chocolate shavings, consider adding crushed nuts or a sprinkle of sea salt for added texture and flavor.
- Serve Immediately: For the best experience, serve your sundaes right after assembling. This way, you can enjoy the warm sauce with the cold ice cream for the ultimate indulgence!
