Spaghetti Ice Cream

Total Time: 10 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 1
  • 1 1/2 cups vanilla ice cream, approximately,to taste
  • 1/4-1/2 cup strawberry ice cream topping, or other red berry dessert sauce
  • 1/4-1/2 cup chocolate ice cream, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped nuts (such as almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts, peanuts)
  • 2 -3 fresh mint leaves, as garnish

Recipe

  • 1 place slightly softened vanilla ice cream into the cavity of a large potato ricer and squeeze over a serving plate, swirling around and around so that you produce a mound of vanilla ice cream spaghetti strands.
  • 2 make sure your vanilla ice cream is soft enough to press through your potato ricer (too soft and it will melt and make a mess)- it needs to be just soft enough to squeeze through easily, and this may take a little practice.
  • 3 when you feel satisfied that you have enough spaghetti stands mounded onto your plate for a serving, then place a small scoop of chocolate ice cream in the center to simulate a meatball.
  • 4 ladle the red berry sauce over the top of the meatball, and spilling over onto the spaghetti.
  • 5 sprinkle with some very finely ground nuts to simulate ground parmesan cheese and garnish with a sprig of mint leaves to simulate fresh basil.
  • 6 serve immediately.
