Blueberry & Peach Amaretto Sundae

This is a refreshing dessert to make when peaches are in season.
I used Haagen-Dazs Vanilla ice cream for this dessert. Let it soften at bit at room temperature or microwave for 20 seconds for a soft-serve texture.

Serves 4

Ingredients:

Ice cream
1 cup of fresh blueberries (wild if available)
2 ripe peaches, sliced or chopped
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted
4 TBS Amaretto Liquor
4 TBS pure maple syrup
Mint for garnish (optional)

Directions:

Spread the almonds on a baking sheet and bake them at 350F for about 5-8 minutes till light brown.  Remove to a plate to cool. This can be done ahead.

Scoop the ice-cream into the bowls and top with the peaches, using 1/2 peach per dish. Then add the blueberries, 1/4 cup per dish. Drizzle with the Amaretto and maple syrup. Sprinkle with the almonds.  You can add a sprig of mint for garnish.

Slice the peaches just before serving so they keep their color and don't brown.
