Ice Cream Beer Surprise!

Perfect for a hot topping on ice cream or other deserts, this recipe is sure to turns some heads. The recommended beer (Stout) has a very rich, roasted flavour that compliments roasted nuts.

Ingredients:

• ½ cup of Stout (or other flavoured beer – honey brown, lambic, wheat)
• 1-2 tablespoons of sugar (or maple syrup)
• *½ teaspoon of cinnamon
• *½ teaspoon of nutmeg
• ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract
• *1 tablespoon of butter
• ½ cup of walnuts (peanuts, almonds or mixed nuts, salted or unsalted)
• 3-6 cups of Vanilla Ice Cream

(*Optional ingredients – use to taste)

Directions:

In a pot pour in the beer and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and add the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract and butter. Mixed until all ingredients have melted thoroughly. In ice cream dishes place 1 to 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream. Cover the ice cream with nuts and pour warm ingredients over the top. Serve.

Serves 6-8 with a smile!
