Sundaes BestWhen you're short on time, you can easily add some frosty fun to dinnertime by serving up a variety of toppings and sauces and letting family members concoct their own scrumptious sundaes. Or scoop up one of these sweet and simple suggestions and treat your family to a refreshing dessert: Drizzle chocolate sauce over a scoop of strawberry ice cream and top with sliced berries and kiwi. Dollop with whipped cream. Instead of the usual chocolate sauce, top vanilla ice cream with warmed orange marmalade and a few fresh berries. For a super chocolaty treat, place a scoop of chocolate or chocolate mint ice cream on a brownie and pour on the hot fudge sauce. Add a spoonful of whipped cream, sprinkle with peanuts and accent with a maraschino cherry or a chocolate kiss. Like s'mores? You'll love this! Dress up a scoop of ice cream with chocolate sauce, mini marshmallows, whipped cream and graham cracker crumbs. Give a tropical-flavored ice cream added appeal with canned mandarin oranges and pineapple chunks. Serve with gingersnaps.

Does anybody need 600 calories worth of empty calories after a meal?

This is a wonderful idea and I appreciate you sharing it. Why do people have to be so negative about something so great tasting.

It's not that cookies and ice cream aren't good together, it's just that this recipe is definitely not even a little bit original. Even the picture shows a dish of ice cream with syrup and cookies on the side. Who hasn't done that?? "Cookie Sundaes?" This is a dish that most everybody has done.
