Ice Cream Ball Fondue
- 2 pints ice cream, different flavors
- 1 cup biscotti crumbs, (using store-bought biscotti)
- 1 cup toasted almonds, chopped
- 2 cups satin chocolate sauce, recipe follows
- 2 cups caramel sauce, recipe follows
- 2 cups raspberry sauce, recipe follows
- 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
- 9 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1 cup hot coffee
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- 3 cups frozen raspberries, thawed
- 1/4 cup sugar
- Satin Chocolate Sauce: In the top half of a double boiler, combine the 2 chocolates over simmering water.
- Stir constantly until melted, then whisk in the corn syrup and coffee without removing the double boiler from the heat.
- Whisk until smooth and shiny.
- (The sauce can be made up to 24 hours in advance and refrigerated.
- To rewarm, stir over low heat or heat in a microwave.)
- Caramel Sauce: Pour the sugar into the center of a deep saucepan.
- Carefully pour the water around the walls of the pan, trying not to splash any sugar onto the walls.
- Do not stir; gently draw your finger twice through the center of the sugar, making a cross, to moisten it.
- Over high heat, bring to a full boil and cook without stirring, swirling the pan occasionally to even out the color, until medium caramel in color, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Immediately turn off the heat and use a wooden spoon to slowly and carefully stir in the cream (it will bubble up and may splatter).
- Set aside.
- If the sauce has cooled, rewarm it over low heat (or in a microwave) until softened.
- Raspberry Sauce: Puree the berries with the sugar in a blender.
- Strain out the seeds through a strainer and keep chilled until ready to serve.
- Using a small ice cream scoop, scoop out balls of ice cream and place them on a sheet pan in the freezer.
- One at a time, roll 1 flavor in the biscotti crumbs and the other flavor in the chopped almonds then return them to the freezer.
- Keep them in an airtight container until ready to serve, up to 2 days.
- Place the sauces in bowls or individual fondue pots if you have them and warm the chocolate fudge and caramel.
- Serve the sauces with the coated ice cream balls and some forks for dipping.
