Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 2 cups vanilla ice cream
- 1/4 cup chocolate syrup
- 1/4 cup whipped cream
Instructions
- Prepare your workspace by gathering all ingredients and necessary equipment including a baking sheet, mixing bowl, and serving dishes.
- Preheat your broiler to high temperature, positioning the rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Spread graham cracker crumbs evenly on a baking sheet and toast in the broiler for 1-2 minutes until they become golden brown and fragrant, watching carefully to prevent burning.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips in 15-second intervals, stirring between each interval until smooth and completely melted.
- Scoop vanilla ice cream into four individual serving dishes, creating a smooth base layer.
- Drizzle melted chocolate evenly over the ice cream, allowing it to create beautiful swirls and patterns.
- Sprinkle toasted graham cracker crumbs generously over the chocolate-covered ice cream.
- Arrange mini marshmallows on top of the sundae, ensuring even distribution.
- Place the sundaes under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully until marshmallows turn golden brown and slightly puffy.
- Remove from broiler and immediately drizzle chocolate syrup over the top.
- Finish by adding a dollop of whipped cream to each sundae.
- Serve immediately while marshmallows are still warm and ice cream is cold for the ultimate taste and texture contrast.
Tips
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor profile.
- Watch marshmallows carefully under the broiler to prevent burning—they can go from golden to charred in seconds.
- For extra crunch, consider briefly freezing your graham cracker crumbs after toasting.
- Use a microwave-safe glass bowl when melting chocolate for more even heating.
- Serve immediately after broiling to maintain the perfect temperature contrast between warm marshmallows and cold ice cream.
- For a gourmet touch, try using artisanal chocolate or homemade marshmallows.
- If you don't have a broiler, a kitchen torch can work wonderfully for toasting marshmallows.
