Ingredients
- 4 pints Ice cream (various flavors)
- waffle cones
- crushed cookies (Oreos, chocolate chip,etc)
- Mini M&Ms
- chopped nuts
- Sprinkles
- mini marshmallows
- mini chocolate chips
- candy bar pieces (milk chocolate bars, Reese's, Snickers,etc.)
- cherries
- strawberries (sliced or diced)
- ice cream syrups/sauces (chocolate, caramel, strawberry, hot fudge,etc.)
Instructions
- Place a large oval bowl in the center of a large charcuterie board or tray. This will hold the ice cream so leave it empty until ready to serve.
- Fill small bowls with your favorite ice cream toppings such as crushed cookies, mini M&Ms, mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, chopped nuts, cherries, strawberries, chocolate syrup, caramel sauce, strawberry sauce.
- Arrange the small bowls around the large oval bowl and place the waffle cones and any larger toppings such as candy bars, cookies, or marshmallows directly on the board.
- Add ice to the large oval bowl and sprinkle 2 tablespoons salt over the ice, this will help keep the ice cream cold.
- Place the ice cream containers in the ice and serve immediately.
Notes
- Have a variety of toppings so everyone can choose what they like best! The fun of having a make your own bar is being able to customize your own dessert just how you like it!
- Have different ice cream scoops for each of the ice cream flavors. Having an ice cream scoop for each flavor helps keep the different flavors from getting completely mixed. This is especially important if you have people who may not want nuts or may not want cookies or may not want chocolate mixed into their vanilla ice cream. If you don’t have more than one, ask nicely to borrow a couple!
- Prep everything on the board ahead of time then add the ice cream last minute. The ice will help keep the ice cream cold for a while but depending on the temperature, it will likely still begin to melt quickly if you’re serving this during the summer months.
- Add empty ice cream cups, ice cream cones, and even waffles bowl to the ice cream board or around it so people can choose which one they prefer!
- Add larger cookies that would be a good base for a cookie sandwich then people can make an ice cream sundae or an ice cream sandwich!
- Choose a variety of flavors that are universally liked and always include vanilla. I like to include four different flavors that are popular with most people. Vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, cookies and cream, mint chocolate chip, cookie dough and birthday cake ice cream all make great options.
- Ice cream topping suggestions: crushed cookies, crushed Oreos, mini chocolate chips, chopped Andes Mints, chopped nuts of any kind, sprinkles (rainbow and chocolate sprinkles are both great), chopped candy bars, mini marshmallows, gummy and fruit candy, fresh fruit, waffle cone pieces, maraschino cherries, and more! You could even do some other non-traditional toppings like sea salt, salted caramel, toffee bits, crumbled bacon, maple syrup, peanut butter, and more!
