How people cook with it
This ice cream is perfect for enjoying on its own or as a complement to other desserts. It can elevate simple dishes into something special.
- Scooped into bowls
- Topped with fruit
- Served with pie
- Blended into milkshakes
To enjoy this reduced fat ice cream, allow it to soften slightly at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping. This makes it easier to serve and improves its texture. It can be served in a bowl or cone. For milkshakes, combine scoops with milk and any desired flavorings in a blender. It also pairs well with warm baked goods, providing a delightful contrast in temperature and texture. Consider adding toppings like sprinkles or sauces for extra enjoyment.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining ice cream in its original container and cover it tightly with plastic wrap or a lid to prevent freezer burn. Keep it in the coldest part of your freezer. Consume within a reasonable timeframe for the best flavor and texture.
