Ingredients

3/4 cup whipping cream

1 pint coffee ice cream
Chopped toffee candy (such as Heath bars or Almond Roca)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Bring cream and corn syrup to simmer in heavy medium saucepan, stirring occasionally. Pour 2/3 cup mixture into bowl. Add chocolate to bowl and stir until chocolate melts and sauce is smooth.
