The Original Knickerbocker

Ingredients
4 ounces ice cream
1/2 ounce chocolate syrup
1/2 ounce raspberry, crushed
3 ounces whipped cream
2 brandied cherries
Rose Essence

Directions

  1. Place the ice cream in a glass and add chocolate syrup, some of the whipped cream and 2 dashes of essence of rose.
  2. Add raspberry fruit and then balance of whipped cream and the rose essence
  3. Top with cherries.

Each of the separate portions will appear as a separate layer in glass. This sundae should be served in a tall, narrow, 10-ounce, thin glass, and the dispenser in serving should insert long spoon to the bottom of the glass just once and draw slowly towards top, so as to slightly mix the ingredients. This is done for appearance only.

Fifteen cents should be secured for this sundae and all materials should be of the very best.
