6 Amazing and Easy Ice Cream Desserts that Anyone Can Make

Ice cream is honestly one of the best things ever.  Whoever invented ice cream is a mother f**king genius- they are my god.  Anyhoo, one of the best things about ice cream is that there are SO MANY flavors.  Ben and Jerry's alone has at least twenty... I think... anyhoo either way there's so much variety and truly something for everyone.  Keeping that in mind, you don't always just have to eat ice cream by itself.  You can make sundaes and a variety of other easy treats for yourself.  Here's a short list if you're looking for some new midnight munchies to try, or are flat out bored.  Either way good luck and may the force be with you!

 

1. Brownie Sundae

An all time classic and possible my most favorite thing to eat ever, a brownie sundae is simple and delicious.  With only a few key ingredients, but with lots of room to spice things up, it's hard to go wrong with a brownie sundae.  I like to top mine with melted caramel and chocolate chips- that is in addition to the hot fudge and whipped cream that usually comes equipped :)

2. Ice Cream Parfait

Looking to trick yourself into thinking that you're eating something healthy- why not try an ice cream parfait.  It's pretty straightforward- simply throw some ice cream into a cup and top with whatever assortment of fruits and nuts you desire.  I personally like strawberries, blueberries, with some crushed walnuts on top of vanilla ice cream. 
 

3. Ice Cream Cupcakes

So most people over the age of eight have heard of ice cream cake- if you haven't I'm very sorry because you have been missing out.  To be frank ice cream cake is f**king delicious.  They're affordable, relatively easy to make, and impressive.  Also you can make like 12 at once so BONUS! 

 

4. Peanut Butter Ice Cream Sandwiches

First things first, whip together a batch of seriously delicious peanut butter cookies.  If you need a good recipe click here.  Next take whatever flavor ice cream you think might taste good, I personally go for chocolate chip or some type of brownie flavored ice cream, but you should do whatever your heart desires. 

5. Ice Cream pie.

It's as simple and delicious as it sounds.  All you need is some pie crust, whatever flavor ice cream you're currently craving.  I personally like a thick pie crust with pistachio ice cream and crushed walnuts.  Or Maple Ice cream with crushed nuts and hot fudge- absolutely delicious. 

6. Ice Cream Cake

Making a delicious ice cream cake is not as difficult as it sounds- you just need a shit ton of ice cream.  Make a few layers of cake (depending on just how big you want your finished product to be) and then in between the layers add whatever flavor you like.  Then add icing, or frosting, or pretty much whatever.  My suggestion is chocolate cake with vanilla chocolate chip ice cream, topped with cream cheese frosting and strawberries.  But that's just me.  Luckily these are pretty easy to make your own so you can really do whatever!
