Ingredients
Instructions
-
Prepare the Cookies:
Crush 4 Oreo cookies into large chunks and set aside. Reserve the remaining 2 cookies whole for topping. -
Make the Chocolate Sauce:
In a small saucepan, heat 50 ml of cream with the sugar. Once warm, remove from heat and stir in the chopped chocolate until smooth. -
Create the Oreo Milk Mix:
Heat 50 ml of milk in the microwave for 20 seconds. Gently mix in 100 g of vanilla ice cream to create a pourable, creamy layer. -
Assemble the Sundaes:
In two serving glasses, layer 50 g of vanilla ice cream, a spoonful of chocolate sauce, and crushed Oreos. Repeat the layers until full.
-
Finish and Serve:
Top with whipped cream, place a whole Oreo on each, and dust with cocoa powder. Serve immediately for the perfect hot-cold contrast.
Notes
-
Make It Easier: Heat the chocolate sauce for 10 more seconds for a smoother, more pourable texture.
-
Swap Ingredients: Try speculoos cookies instead of Oreos for a spiced crunch.
-
Serving Tip: Serve while the chocolate sauce is still warm for a beautiful marbled effect against the cold ice cream.
-
Optional Garnish: Add chocolate shavings or a drizzle of caramel sauce.
