Cherry-Chocolate Sundae With Spiced-Almond Praline
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
- 1/4 cup sliced almonds
- 1 pint vanilla light ice cream
- 1 cup frozen pitted cherries
- 1/4 cup English toffee pieces
- 2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted and cooled
- Preheat oven to 375u0b0. Stir together first 4 ingredients (through pepper) in a small bowl. Add almonds, and stir gently until well-combined. Transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, and spread nuts in a single layer. Bake in middle of oven, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes or until golden brown and fragrant. Remove parchment from pan, and let almonds cool on paper. Nuts will crisp as they cool.
- Break nut mixture into pieces. Portion ice cream into each of 4 tall glasses with an ice cream scoop, and top evenly with cherries, toffee, and nut mixture. Top with a drizzle of melted chocolate. Serve immediately.
