Please note I am not really insulting **rjk** for being crazy for preferring caramel to whipped cream. Although clearly this IS a sign of insanity. ---

A chocolate-frosted chocolate donut, topped with vanilla ice cream, chocolate and fudge sauce, sprinkles, and the cherry on top. Heaven in a bowl. _happy sigh_ ---

> [@FriarTed](#): > > Are they made with actual donuts, because if so, my brother & I were discussing that a year ago! Bah. What a let down. Just similar flavorings to their donuts, not actual donut pieces in the drink. Just as well. Krispy Kremes don’t hold up well cold. ---

> [@CynicalGabe](#): > > Can I get one of those deep-fried??? By thunder! You’ve hit it! What I was struggling with in the donut-sundae conundrum was the fact that donuts are not sturdy enough to support a scoop of hard ice cream without getting smooshed. But deep fried you suggest? I’m taking this to mean make the sundae, then deep fry the whole thing. How about one better… Scoop of ice cream coated in donut batter and then deep fried!!! Like mexican fried ice cream but with donut outside, or like a custard filled donut but ice cream filled. Donut would have to fry longer than the typical fried ice cream coating, so perhaps the ice cream would have to be nitrogen cooled. Whole concoction would come out with crunchy cakey donut ouside, cool ice cream inside just starting to get soft. Mmmmmmmm.
