How people cook with it

- Enjoy straight from the carton
- Top warm brownies
- Serve with fresh fruit
- Blend into milkshakes
Allow the ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping. This makes it easier to serve and enhances its creamy texture. It can be enjoyed in a bowl, cone, or used as a base for more elaborate dessert creations. For milkshakes, combine with milk and blend until smooth. It also pairs well with warm baked goods, adding a cool contrast.
