To enjoy, simply remove the lid from the cup. The ice cream is best served when slightly softened, so allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before digging in. You can eat it directly from the cup with a spoon. It is also a delightful addition to other desserts, such as being placed on top of a slice of cake or used to create an ice cream sandwich with cookies.

Compared to traditional ice cream tubs, these cups offer pre-portioned servings, which helps with portion control and convenience. The inclusion of distinct cookie pieces provides textural contrast, setting it apart from plain vanilla ice cream. The creamy base is designed to be smooth and rich.

How to keep the rest
Keep any remaining cups in the freezer to maintain their frozen state. Ensure the lid is securely replaced if not fully consumed. Store in the coldest part of your freezer to prevent melting and maintain optimal texture for future enjoyment.
