Just because you're lactose intolerant or dairy-free doesn't mean you can't still enjoy a chilly ice cream sundae. Make your own DIY sundae bar at home with all your favorite toppings!
We recently celebrated my 28th birthday with homemade sundaes but they're delicious any day of the week! From vegan to gluten-free, Sprouts' selection of frozen desserts guarantees that everyone in your family can indulge in this decadent treat.
What goes on an ice cream sundae?
Top your sundae to your heart's desire! Some people show restraint on toppings, while others (like me!) load them up with everything but the kitchen sink. Here are some tasty topping ideas:
- Mini cookies
- Chocolate chips
- Chopped peanuts
- Sliced banana
- Sprinkles
- Hot fudge or sauce
- Whipped topping
Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Drizzle
To have a true ice cream sundae, you need a rich saucy drizzle over the top of your ice cream scoops! Make your own at home with this 3-ingredient dark chocolate peanut butter sauce.
Simply add coconut cream or coconut milk, smooth peanut butter, and non-dairy dark chocolate to a small saucepan and warm over low heat. Stir continuously as the chocolate melts, then remove from heat, and continue to stir until everything is well combined.
How to make an ice cream sundae
Satisfy your sweet tooth and cool down with this coconut milk ice cream sundae! We love indulging in So Delicious frozen treats because they're unbelievably creamy. For this dessert, we chose their no sugar added vanilla bean flavor. It's vegan, gluten-free, and the perfect base to a fully loaded sundae.
Make your sundae by scooping ice cream into a bowl, drizzle with dark chocolate pb sauce, and sprinkle on toppings. To keep your ice cream frozen for a bit longer, place your bowl inside the freezer just before scooping ice cream!
I hope you enjoy this allergy-friendly ice cream sundae as much as we do. It's delicious, nostalgic, and fun! If you try this recipe, please share a photo with me over on Instagram♡
