How people cook with it

- Served in a bowl
- As a topping for pies
- Blended into milkshakes
- Scooped into cones
Allow the ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping for the best texture. It can be served directly from the container in bowls or cones. For milkshakes, combine scoops with milk and any desired flavorings in a blender. It also pairs well with warm baked goods like brownies or cobblers, where the cold ice cream contrasts with the warm dessert.

How to keep the rest
