Ingredients

Scale

Crunchy Layer:

  • 3/4 cup salted butter (1 1/2 sticks)
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 5 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1 1/2 cups sweetened coconut flakes (optional)

Ice Cream:

  • 1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream

Raspberry Sauce:

  • 18 ounces fresh raspberries (or frozen)
  • 3/4 cup sugar

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
  2. Stir in the sugar until dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Remove from heat and quickly fold in Rice Krispies and coconut flakes (if using) until evenly coated.
  4. Press the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch pan and allow to cool completely until set.
  5. In another saucepan, combine raspberries and sugar for the sauce. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until berries break down and the sauce thickens (about 10–15 minutes).
  6. Let raspberry sauce cool before using.
  7. To serve, scoop vanilla ice cream into bowls, top with chunks of the crunchy mixture, and drizzle with raspberry sauce.

Notes

  • Make the crunchy topping a day ahead and store in an airtight container.
  • For a twist, use strawberry or blueberry sauce instead of raspberry.
  • Try it with chocolate or coconut ice cream for even more flavor fun!
