Modified Banana Split (coz i don't know what to call it yet)

So to celebrate my grades this sem, my mother let me buy stuff to have a sort of ice cream bar thing. So we bought ice cream, marshmallows, cream, shell syrup and bananas. I'm sort of a sucker for the classic banana split but I decided I can minimize and instead of buying three kinds of ice cream (vanilla strawberry and chocolate) and then looking for some salt-less nuts to top it off with, I just bought strawberry and rocky road.

I built my sundae and it turned out great.

  • I scooped rocky road unto the bottom and
  • splashed some raspberry syrup over it... It's this thing we've had in the pantry for like, over a hundred years and it's not like a real syrup; it's kinda watery. But goes incredibly well with Arce Dairy Chocolate ice cream. Anyway. So.
  • I ripped up some of the huge mallows we bought coz I'm a total man like that and put them in.
  • then I sliced some bananas and then put it there too.
  • I scooped some strawberry ice cream after that, sandwiching the mutilated mallow bits and bananas between the two kinds of icecream
  • then I poured a little chocolate shell over the strawberry.
  • Before all this mayhem, I put the cream in the freezer after whipping it. So I put that over the hardened shell
  • Then I topped the whole thing off with one of the leftover maraschino cherries from my bday Root Beer Fizz...which I should prolly discuss in another post.

So yeah. It turned out awesome. The Rocky Road ice cream could have used being a little more nuttier though. But that depends I guess on your taste.
