This is the ultimate ice cream sundae. Obviously, if you're not a peanut-eater, it won't be for you, but for everyone else it is the stuff of dreams. Last time I made this sauce, I nearly had to make another batch, I'd eaten so much before even getting the ice creams out of the freezer.

Talking of which, obviously you should choose whichever flavours of ice cream you want. Even if you are reduced to just plain-old, same-old vanilla, you have a party right here.

I made a jar of this for a friend to take home for her supper recently. As soon as she'd had it she sent a text saying, "Bottle that sauce, make millions". Well, maybe, but until then, here's the recipe.

Method

  1. Put all the cream, chopped chocolate, peanut butter and golden syrup into a saucepan and place on the heat to melt, stirring occasionally. In about 2 minutes you should have your sauce ready.
  2. Get out four sundae glasses and put a scoop of toffee or caramel ice cream in each, followed by one of chocolate and then another of vanilla.
  3. Pour some chocolate peanut butter fudge sauce over each sundae and sprinkle with the salted peanuts. Hand them round and wait for people to weep with gratitude.

  • I don't like peanut butter but this tastes just like a snickers bar. Very naughty but you only need a bit!

  • OMG, soo delicious. I only use roasted/salted peanuts as I like more salt and less sugar. I could eat half of this recipe by myself.

  • This is truly amazing. I have made this version, and the version featured on the TV series where Nigella uses condensed milk instead of cream and golden syrup. I prefer the condensed milk version. Be sure to add a splash of water if using the condensed milk otherwise you will end up with a very thick caramel - not that that's a bad thing! The salted peanuts are essential. Toasted flake almonds go well, too.

  • I love peanut butter so this for me is a must try. But may I say it would taste yummy even with French vanilla icecream :)
