hot fudge sundae

Ice cream indulgence

A hot fudge sundae is a dessert of ice cream—traditionally vanilla—topped with warm chocolate fudge sauce, often finished with whipped cream, nuts, and a maraschino cherry.

The appeal lies in the temperature contrast between cold ice cream and hot fudge: I'm getting a hot fudge sundae for dessert.
