Strawberry Sundae Recipe

American · Dessert · 25 min total

A classic strawberry sundae with fresh strawberry sauce, vanilla ice cream, and whipped cream. This easy recipe lets you enjoy the taste of summer any time.

Ingredients

• 1 lb fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 pint vanilla ice cream
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 maraschino cherries (optional)
• Chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

1. In a medium saucepan, combine sliced strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until strawberries release their juices and sauce thickens slightly, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
2. In a chilled bowl, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
3. To assemble, place a scoop of vanilla ice cream in each serving dish. Spoon the cooled strawberry sauce over the ice cream.
4. Top with a dollop of whipped cream and a maraschino cherry. Sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired. Serve immediately.

Tips

• Strawberry sauce can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 3 days; reheat slightly before serving.
• For a richer sauce, mash some of the strawberries while cooking.
• Substitute low-fat ice cream or frozen yogurt for a lighter version.
