Ingredients

Peanut Butter Fudge Sauce

1 cup (250 mL) whipping cream
½ cup (125 mL) brown sugar
⅓ cup (75 mL) honey
¼ cup (60 mL) unsweetened cocoa powder
⅓ cup (75 mL) peanut butter
3½ oz (100 g) bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1 tbsp (15 mL) vanilla
¼ tsp (1 mL) salt

Ice Cream Sundae Skewers

12 small strawberries
1 large banana, cut into 12 slices

6 scoops coffee, vanilla or chocolate ice cream
2 tbsp (30 mL) peanuts, preferably salted, coarsely chopped

Directions

In a medium saucepan, whisk together whipping cream, brown sugar, honey and cocoa powder until smooth. Set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, whisking continuously. Reduce heat and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in peanut butter, bittersweet chocolate, vanilla and salt.
