Recipe: Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Sundae

I love serving playful looking yummy desserts whenever I get together with my sisters. There are so many variations that we’ve created with ice cream. I found a new one that I’m so excited about. I know they’re going to looooove this one. Here’s a recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Sundae. If you like peanut butter cups and ice cream, you’ll fall in love with this one.

I leave the salty peanuts on the side but others like the nutty crunch added. It’s fun to try variations of the ice cream scoops. My favorite is 1/2 scoop vanilla, 1/2 scoop toffee, 1/2 scoop chocolate, 1/2 scoop caramel and a large pour of the chocolate peanut butter fudge sauce. I like mine in a wide flat dish so I can taste them individually before mixing them together.
