Jazzing up Value Ice Cream

Legacy_user

What can i do to turn a couple of scoops of Value Ice Cream into something more exciting? I am getting through far too many branded ice cream bars and its bumping up my shopping bill.

Any ideas?

try adding chopped fresh (or dried) fruit
melted choc & nuts
blended strawberries
honey & almonds

those "crunchy" cereals you can get like jordans ( but the cheapy ones lol)

crushed biscuits / cookies

crushed maltesers - idea nicked from Jamie Oliver

I love to add a spoonful of peanut butter, I'd imagine hazelnut chocolate spread would work well too.

Chop up a snickers bar - a variation on a Nigella Lawson recipe or add some chopped stem ginger (mmm lovely).

Keep cool:cool:

If you have it then a dash of Baileys not cheap but if you happen to have a bottle anyway...

otherwise I use it all the time for milkshakes either with fresh fruit and milk or nesquick and milk

Make them into a milkshake, it will last a bit longer and is very refreshing!!

Ice cream
Milk and whatever you fancy in it to flavour it
Whip it all together in a blender.

When we went to bognor butlins they had one of those moo milkshake places there and the list of flavours was endless!! They went from mars bars or any kind of choc bar to jam donut's!! Just all whipped up together.

I had problems deciding, but in the end went for ferrerro rocher flavour :drool: The after eight was a very close second, lol.

Oooh yummy!:D I just adore dime bars, never thought of this though!:T


Got so excited by dime bars forgot to say maple syrup and walnuts/pecans.

buy a packet of cones from asda or tesco and put some scoops in, i buy the wafers as i got a gadget from betterware that holds the wafer to spread the ice cream on, sometimes buy the choc wafers, theyre yummy
