Instructions
- Prepare the peanut butter sauce and coconut crunch. Spoon sauce over scoops of vanilla ice cream; sprinkle with coconut crunch and serve immediately.
Peanut Butter Sauce
- Melt the peanut butter chips with the milk and whipping cream in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until the chips are melted. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Cool to room temperature. Makes 1 cup sauce.
Coconut Crunch
- Heat oven to 325°F (165°C). Combine the coconut flakes, chopped nuts, and butter in a shallow baking pan. Toast in the oven, stirring occasionally, for 6 to 8 minutes or until the butter is melted and the mixture is very lightly browned. Watch carefully so it does not burn. Cool to room temperature. Makes about 1 cup.
