Swirled with a juicy strawberry sauce and loaded with lots of chocolate chip pieces, this creamy, luscious ice cream is going to quickly become a family favorite this summer!
Ice cream for daaaaays. Two days in a row and a’countin.
I mean, I gave you a totally fair warning yesterday. Plus y’know today being Friiiiday and all…
No explanation needed. Gimme all the triple + quadruple scoops.
Today’s ice cream has been a long time coming: I first made this ice cream around the beginning of June and I’ve literally probably made it 10 times since then. And put off sharing the recipe with you lovely people because it’s just too dang awesome and doesn’t last even one day.
And uhhh…I’m sure you’ve heard about my well-known little sharing problem. See what I mean?
Double-batches it is then, alriiiighty! Problem momentarily solved.
That is until I just realized….heeey! More ice cream means larger scoops and even extra ones!
I smell a wiiiiiin…♥
Only I think I need a bigger ice cream cone to be honest….
So let me tell you the scoop (haaa) on all the stuff we’ve got goin’ on in today’s frozen wonderland →
Smashed fresh strawberry sauce swirls into creamy vanilla ice cream. Then a legit truckload of chopped semisweet chocolate pieces gets thrown in…
And then your face somehow ends up in your ice cream bowl.
Oops. How unfortunate.
Luscious. Creamy. Full-on vaniiiiiiilla. Jam-packed with juicy tastes-just-like summer strawberries. Those perfect little satisfying cruuuuunches of chocolate.
Icescream, Iscream. ISCREAM rather loudly and obnoxiously. (sorry, I had to)
Oh, and extra chocolate chips sprinkled on top of your XXL scoop of this heaven? You must. In the words of my Grandpa: there is no such dessert in the WORLD that can have too much chocolate.
My motto in life, obviously. 🙂
I’m just now realizing that I’ve said the word “scoop” pretty much no less than 500 times throughout this post. I also realize I’ve shoved about 25 photos and counting in your face to boot. I have a problem or something….
I think the problem is that this dynamite ice cream has stolen all of my ability to formulate words or reasonable thoughts.
Brain freeze? It’s so gonna happen but it’s so gonna be worth it. 😉
This frozen scoop-able heaven is cleaaaaaarly something you want in your freezer this weekend. Conveniently located behind the frozen vegetables where NO ONE will find it.
I freaking love our wicked ice cream-hoarding plans. ♥
And with that parting evil scheme I’ll leave you now to your ice creamin’ business. xoxo.
