Donut Sundaes

I'm almost embarassed to call this a recipe. It's really more of an idea than anything, but what an idea it is and soooooo simple and delicious to make! Donut Sundaes! If you have these on the menu, you'll be the most popular cook ever!

I just love the simplicity of this dessert and the fact that it is so easy and so fun to do. This makes it the perfect dessert for outdoor entertaining, or for kids parties even.

It's as simple as putting a nice storebought glazed, yeast or cake donut on a plate . . .

Topping it with a scoop of ice cream, and then some sauce . . . the flavour of which will all depend on your donut. On a chocolate glazed donut I would use vanilla ice cream, and chocolate sauce . . .

On these raspberry glazed donuts, I used raspberry ripple ice cream and warmed berry jam to spoon over top . . .

With some of those fudgy caramel donuts, you could use vanilla ice cream and a salted caramel sauce and top with some little fudge bits and chopped toasted pecans!

The sprinkles really make them even more fun. I have used strawberry and meringue bits here along with white chocolate stars!

However you choose to put these together and in whatever combinations, these are guaranteed to please! Have fun with them!! Why not have a Donut Sundae Bar at your next cookout and let people make their own! How fun does that sound!
