Name: Turtle Sundaes (Caramel Pecan Sundaes with Chocolate Sauce)
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 30 min
Yield: 4 serving(s)
Ingredients: 1/4 cup (60 ml) water; 1/4 cup (60 ml) sugar; 2 tablespoons (30 ml) corn syrup; 1/2 cup (125 ml) 35% cream, heated; 4 cups (1 litre) vanilla ice cream; 1 cup (250 ml) whole pecans, toasted; 1/2 cup (125 ml) very hot milk; 4 oz (115 g) semi-sweet chocolate, chopped; 4 fresh cherries with stems attached; 4 maraschino cherries with stems attached

Preparation

CARAMEL
- In a saucepan over medium heat, bring the water, sugar and corn syrup to a boil. Cook without stirring until the sugar syrup caramelizes and turns golden. Remove from the heat and slowly add the cream. Return to the heat and stir until smooth. Pour into a bowl and let cool. Cover and place in the freezer for about 30 minutes to cool the caramel quickly.
CARAMEL PECAN ICE CREAM
- Place the ice cream in a bowl and let soften for 5 minutes. Mix in the pecans with a wooden spoon or your hands. Working quickly, add the chilled caramel and mix just enough to create a marble effect. Transfer to a container, seal and freeze for about 2 hours.
CHOCOLATE SAUCE
- Place the chocolate in a bowl and pour the hot milk over it. Let sit for 2 minutes, then whisk until smooth.
ASSEMBLY
- Scoop the ice cream into 4 sundae dishes. Drizzle with the warm chocolate sauce. Garnish each sundae with a cherry.
