Allow the ice cream to soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before serving. This makes it easier to scoop and enhances its creamy texture. It can be served in bowls or cones. For milkshakes, combine scoops with milk and any desired flavorings in a blender. It can also be melted and drizzled over warm desserts like brownies or fruit crisps.
