Cornmeal-Cookie Sundaes with Warm Fruit
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a greased baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
-
While the cookies are baking, prepare the warm fruit topping. In a saucepan, combine the mixed berries, brown sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the berries release their juices and the mixture thickens slightly.
-
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
-
To serve, place a warm cookie in a bowl, top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and spoon the warm fruit topping over the ice cream.
-
Repeat with the remaining cookies and enjoy!
