Treat your ingredients with care...

Tips & Tricks

  • For an extra crunch, sprinkle some crushed nuts like almonds or pistachios on top of the sundae.
  • Experiment with different flavors of ice cream such as vanilla or coffee to create your own variations.
  • If you prefer a milder spice level, adjust the amount of black pepper and cinnamon according to your taste preference.
  • Serve the sundae in chilled bowls to keep the ice cream from melting too quickly.
  • Add a drizzle of caramel sauce for an additional layer of sweetness.
