There are times when you want a dessert that’s insanely easy and ready in five minutes flat.

Like this molten-chocolate microwave mug cake.
And there are times you want to step up your dessert game and get a little ~fancy~ with it.

For those times? There’s this chocolate ball sundae that is straight-up MAGICAL.

It takes a bit of prep — but it’s worth it.
Here’s how to make it…
Start by melting a half cup of white chocolate chips in the microwave:

Then grab the ~secret weapon~ of this dessert:

It’s a fillable plastic ornament — which you can find at any craft store or on Amazon.
Twist it open, pour in the chocolate, then rotate so the chocolate covers all sides.

Pop it in the freezer for 30 minutes — then BEHOLD YOUR BEAUTIFUL CHOCOLATE ORB.

(And TBH, no judgment if you just want to stop here bc the ~chocolate orb~ is already pretty badass on its own.)
Next, make a small hole on the bottom of the whole thing:

Do this by running hot water over a flat bowl or plate, drying it, then putting the chocolate bomb on it and twisting gently. This will melt the bottom of it, creating a hole for the sundae filling.
Then make your sundae stack for the filling:

BROWNIES + ICE CREAM, Y’ALL.
Gently place the chocolate bomb over the stack:

Then for the grand, table-ready finale? POUR IT WITH ABANDON…
