Churro Funnel Cake Ice Cream Sundaes Recipes

CHURRO FUNNEL CAKE ICE CREAM SUNDAES

Steps:

• Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a wide shallow dish and set aside.
• In a medium saucepan set over medium heat melt the butter, then add in the milk, water, sugar and salt. Bring the mixture just to a boil and removed from heat. Mix in the flour and stir until it becomes a thick paste. Return the saucepan to medium heat and stir continuously for several minutes as the dough dries out. Look for a thin layer of film on the bottom of the pan.
• Remove from heat and put the dough into a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on low for about 5 minutes or cooled slightly. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition. Pour the dough into a piping bag fitted with a medium plain tip or star tip.
• Bring a heavy-bottomed pot filled with vegetable oil to 350°F. Pipe the dough directly into the hot oil, swirling the batter as it falls in. The funnel cakes will be a little unpredictable, but aim to make them about 6 inches in diameter.
• Cook for about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel lined sheet pan to drain for about 1 minute, then dump in the cinnamon sugar and toss to coat. Serve immediately with ice cream and chocolate sauce.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the heavy cream, corn syrup and salt just until the mixture steams but doesn't quite come to a boil. Reduce heat to low and add the chocolate and cinnamon. Stir constantly until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
• Serve the chocolate sauce warm. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 1 week.

CHURRO ICE CREAM SUNDAE

Steps:

• Line a rimmed baking sheet with plastic wrap.
• Using a scoop, place 4, ½-cup balls of ice cream onto the prepared baking sheet. Freeze for 1 hour. Once hardened, shape ice cream with hands to round out bottoms.
• Whisk egg white until frothy in a medium bowl. Place Corn Flakes in a shallow dish. Dip ice cream in egg to coat completely and then coat in corn flakes. Return to prepared pan and freeze for 4 hours.
• Stir sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• Heat 2 inches of oil in medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan to 375⁰F. Add ice cream in batches of 2 and fry for 15 seconds, turning gently with a slotted spoon. Remove with slotted spoon.
• Remove and place in 4 bowls, adding a ¼ cup of whipped topping on each. Distribute pineapple and raspberries evenly among the bowls. Sprinkle each sundae with 1 tsp cinnamon sugar.
• Tip: To make this dish even more authentic, drizzle with chocolate sauce and dulce de leche.
