To serve, allow the ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping. This makes it easier to get clean scoops. It can be served in individual bowls or cones. For milkshakes, combine scoops with milk and any desired flavorings in a blender and process until smooth. It can also be used as a base for ice cream cakes or sundaes, often paired with toppings like whipped cream, sprinkles, or fruit.
