3. Charred Banana Split

Here’s the recipe.

If you’re a fan of banana splits, you’ve gotta give this grown-up version a try. The bananas are marinated in rum, brown sugar and cinnamon. After, that’s grilled until caramelized. Those flavorful bananas are served with coffee ice cream, whipped cream, mocha sauce and nuts.  

2. Ice Cream Bread Pudding

Here’s the recipe.

For this recipe, you’re actually going to want to melt your ice cream. Of course, that won’t be a problem with this heat. Vanilla ice cream takes the place of custard, so making bread pudding is so much easier. That’s served with a salted, whiskey caramel.

1. Eskimo Bars

Here’s the recipe.

Imagine a fudgy brownie layer, topped with vanilla ice cream, frozen and cut into rectangles, and then dipped in chocolate that magically hardens into a crisp shell. Some would stop there, but nope—don’t you dare. The recipe includes a warm caramel sauce for dipping all of that decadence in.
