For this chocolate banana sundae, you will need banana, plain chocolate, golden syrup, double cream and a few other indulgent ingredients. Prepare the ice cream scoops in advance by scooping onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment then place in the freezer for a couple of hours to really firm up. Chill the glasses in the fridge for an hour and assemble the sundaes just a few minutes before serving. We love topping this sundae with homemade brownies using our chocolate brownie recipe.
