Chocolate sundaes

Method

1. Place the chocolate, butter and water in a small saucepan over a gentle heat and stir until the chocolate has melted. Do not let it boil. Add the liqueur and orange rind and stir well.

2. Put all the ingredients for the toffee sauce into a saucepan over a moderate heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Increase the heat and boil for four to five minutes, until the sauce is thick and smooth.

3. Take two sundae glasses, and place one scoop of vanilla ice cream in each, and then one scoop of chocolate ice cream.

4. Follow this with half of the sliced banana. Drizzle each sundae with one tablespoon of hot chocolate sauce, and one tablespoon of hot toffee sauce.

5. Sprinkle each with one tablespoon of toasted and chopped nuts and finish off with whipped cream.
