Favourite Ice-Cream Topping?

I like to take a handful of bittersweet Ghirardelli chocolate chips and grind them up as fine as I can, almost into a powder.  I use an Alaskan ulu knife, but many things would work.  I drizzle a little Hershey's syrup over the ice cream first so the chocolate chip powder will stick.  I call it a choco mountain.

Incidentally, since it's a related topic, I highly recommend to anyone that you try Rhett and Link's idea for a peanut butter ice cream sandwich.  This was one of the ideas they tried in their "Will it Ice Cream Sandwich?" episode.  The idea is to make an ice cream sandwich where the outer part is wafers of frozen peanut butter.  (I don't recommend using as much as they did.  They used giant bricks for comedic effect.)  You have to experiment with the amount.  I plop a couple of generous tablespoons of peanut butter on some wax paper (the only thing I've found that it doesn't stick to), and try to shape it roughly into like an oblong wafer.  It's tough to work with.  I make two such wafers, and once they're reasonably even, I put them in the freezer overnight.  Then peel 'em off, and put a couple scoops of cookies 'n' cream in the middle and get ready for the most incredible desert you've ever tasted!  If you really want to bam it up a notch, turn it into a choco mountain--drizzle some chocolate sauce on the ice cream and pour on some ground up Ghirardelli chips before putting the second wafer on top.  It's so intensely rich and decadent, it's like a black hole of chocolate madness.  Extremely messy, annoying to make, but totally worth it.  Oh yes, I almost forgot, it is absolutely imperative that your peanut butter has one ingredient, and one ingredient only: peanuts.  If I find out you're making 'em with, like, f*ckin' Jiff with oil and sugar 'n' crap, I'mma come over there and beat you with a bag of oranges.  But seriously, peanut butters with salt or oil or other ingredients are terrible for ice cream sandwiches.  You want the natural kind.
