A decadent but desirable dessert for two. This chocolate peanut butter ice cream sundae is quick and easy to make, assuming you’ve already made the blondies or brownies. Comes complete, with not just one, but two sauces. You can, of course, double, triple or quadruple the recipe to enjoy with family and friends.

Well, today is Valentines’s Day and to really show the love, you’ve got to have something chocolatey and decidedly decadent. More importantly today marks Tin and Thyme’s ninth anniversary.
As some of you will know, it started life as Chocolate Log Blog and was a means for me to explore one of my great loves – the world of chocolate. This gorgeous chocolatey dessert seems like a fitting celebration.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sundae
If, like me, you’re a peanut butter and chocolate lover then this chocolate peanut butter ice cream sundae is for you too. There’s something very appealing about the combination of salty and sweet. You get so many levels of flavour as you spoon into the glass and then into your mouth. The vanilla ice cream sets it all off very nicely.

To start things off, I made some peanut butter blondies with salted dark chocolate chips. As I’m sure you can imagine, they were super scrummy all on their own. I’ll be blogging the recipe at some point in the future. In the meantime, here’s a recipe for my plain, but nevertheless scrumptious, blondies. They may take a while to bake, but they’re ever so easy to make.
If you’re not up to baking your own, use some short bought brownies instead.
The blondies form the base of this ice cream sundae. I then piled some vanilla ice cream on top. It wasn’t homemade this time, but it was organic. Over this already lush combination, I poured some dark chocolate sauce and then drizzled sweet peanut butter sauce over that. Almost finished, just a sugar curl or two to stick in the top. A valentine’s sundae fun day.

Of course you don’t need to keep such a scrumptious offering as this chocolate peanut butter ice cream sundae just for Valentine’s Day. It’s perfect for any special occasion and you can enjoy it all year round.
It should perhaps come with a serious sugar and fat overload health warning But sometimes it’s good not to think about it. My philosophy is, as long as it’s occasional, it’s good to indulge from time to time.
The recipe can easily be doubled, tripled or quadrupled if you want to share it with family and friends.
All Gone
You can see we polished off this delightful dessert with relish. In fact, we might just have had one or two more. Not on the same day though. Honest!

So here’s to another nine years of blogging and I hope you enjoy this delicious chocolate peanut butter ice cream sundae as much as we did.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sundae – The Recipe
Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sundae
Ingredients
- 2 peanut butter blondies or brownies
- 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
- 4 sugar curls optional
Salted Dark Chocolate Sauce
- 25 ml water
- 1 tsp dark muscovado sugar
- 50 g salted dark chocolate I used Divine’s 70% with pink Himalayan rock salt
- 50 ml double cream
Sweet Peanut Sauce
- 50 ml water
- 1 rounded tsp of light muscovado sugar
- 1 tbsp smooth salted peanut butter
Instructions
- Cube the blondies and place in a sundae dish or glass.
- Pile in 2 scoops of ice cream.
- Pour some hot chocolate sauce over the top and watch it freeze.
- Drizzle over a little of the peanut butter sauce.
- Add a couple of sugar curls, if you like, and tuck in.
Salted Dark Chocolate Sauce
- Place the water and sugar into a small pan and bring to a simmer to melt the sugar.
- Turn the heat off and add the chocolate. Stir until melted.
- Stir in the cream and gently reheat if necessary.
Sweet peanut butter sauce.
- Whilst the chocolate is melting, place all ingredients into a small pan and slowly bring to the boil, whisking as you go. It will look terribly gloopy to begin with, but will come together if you keep stirring. Add a little more water if the mixture is too thick.

One of my favourite flavour combinations! These look delicious.
Chocolate and peanut butter are so very good together. I don’t understand why it took us so long to find out about it.
You had me at Peanut Butter Blondies (it’s ages since I made any of those….) The sauces (which sound divine and the rest and (literally) the ice cream on the cake…. See what I did there? Ok…. I’m no comedian! But I could down a couple of these with no trouble at all x
Well you made me chuckle Kate 🙂 I have to warn you, these are very downable.
Oh my! This looks and sounds delicious. Guess what I am making this weekend!
I hope you like it. Do let me know how you got on.
Yes please! I adore peanut butter and in a sundae, wow! Thank you for sharing with #CookBlogShare x
Thanks Kirsty. Peanut butter works very nicely in a sundae I’ve found 🙂
Oh my, this is just my idea of a heavenly dessert:-)
It was great to have such a good excuse to indulge.
Chocolate, peanut butter and ice cream. Yes, yes and yes. What an amazing combination.
I’m so glad OH doesn’t like peanut butter – more for me.
Hahaha, that’s a good way of looking at it Sisley.
Ooo that sundae would surely win my heart!
Mine too. Luckily, CT seemed rather appreciative too 🙂
These are so indulgent – I bet they were super-scrummy, weren’t they? They certainly look so tempting! xx
Yes, super indulgent, but one’s blog only turns nine once 😀
I love homemade blondies and putting them in this sundae is a brilliant way to celebrate both Valentine’s Day and 9 years of blogging!
Thanks Corina. Blondies always seem like such an indulgence, but oh my, they are good.
Happy anniversary for your blog Choclette …with peanutbutter and chocolate you cańt go wrong with me. Would have loved to try …but I ´ve seen, they were gone so fast 😉
Claudia
Thanks Claudia. Peanut butter and chocolate is a popular combination.
Congratulations on 9 years – that is a great achievement – and a lot of chocolate delights. Love the sundae – I am not so into them by my 8 year old is so I will need to return here for inspiration next time she is hankering for one.
Thanks Johanna. I just find it astonishing that 9 years has passed so fast. And you have an 8 year old already – how did that happen?
Happy 9th Blog Anniversary! What a fab dessert to celebrate it with! That salted dark chocolate sauce, oh my, drool drool! 🙂
Thanks Jo. It’s just as well anniversaries don’t come around too often, but it’s a great excuse to indulge when they do.
Yum! These look like my ideal sundae.
It’s a super scrumptious sundae, but probably shouldn’t be indulged in too often 😉
Oh my that looks good! You are torturing me here. I don’t have the ingredients, so I can look but not eat : (
Haha, that’s probably just as well Jac 😀
Happy Blogiversary of 9 years!!!
Aw, thank you. You wouldn’t believe how little I’ve covered in nine years. Or rather, how much more there is yet to blog about.
Chocolate and peanut butter…two awesome ingredients that we love dearly too. A perfect dessert!
It’s a combination that is very hard to resist Angie 🙂
Happy blogiversary!! That sundae looks delicious and such a great way to celebrate 9 years of blogging!! 😀 Eb x
Thanks Eb. I hope I can keep going another nine years.
That looks totally awesome! Even on a cold snowy day like today, I could devour one of your lovely sundaes.
It’s an all year round sundae Janice – just think hot chocolate sauce.
Gosh, that looks good! I’m loving the sound of that salted dark chocolate – swoon! A perfect treat to share. 🙂
Thanks Elizabeth. Salted chocolate is a firm favourite here.
I’d love one of these, especially with your home made blondies and that peanut sauce!!!
I can highly recommend it Kavey and the blondies are sublime all on their own.
