Ingredients
- cookies ⓘ
- favorite ice cream
Instructions
- Using instant chocolate icing, glue 3/4 of a round chocolate wafer onto a chocolate-covered marshmallow cookie to make the fan tail.
- Next, glue a candy corn to the opposite side of the wafer to form the head.
- Arrange cookies with decorations on ice cream for a fun sundae presentation.
Tips & Substitutions
For a more playful twist, consider using colored icing for the decorations, or substitute the chocolate wafer with graham crackers for a different texture. If you don't have candy corn, mini marshmallows can also work for the head. Ensure the cookies are sturdy enough to hold up the ice cream, and use your favorite ice cream flavor to match the season.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the Kookie Kat Sundae immediately for the best texture, but feel free to pair it with whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for extra indulgence. This dish pairs beautifully with Vegetarian recipes for a light meal before dessert, or alongside a refreshing fruit salad for a balanced treat.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover assembled sundaes in the freezer for up to an hour, but note that the cookies may become soggy from the ice cream. If you have unassembled components, keep the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature and the ice cream in the freezer until ready to serve.
