Consider skipping the fancy desserts while entertaining during the summer months and dish up a bowl with fresh fruit, serve it as a parfait or even on a cone! Here are some ideas on how to serve it with flair.

I Scream...You Scream

We all scream for ice cream!

When family and friends were together earlier this month for a vacation on Cape Cod, Dixie made delicious (and deliciously easy) ice cream sandwiches for an after dinner treat. They were so popular that she made more later that week. What is it about ice cream that makes all happily regress to childhood?

When was the last time you had a ROOT BEER FLOAT?

Looking for a summer dessert? ALMOND ICE CREAM CAKE sounds very tempting!

Or CHOCOLATE COOKIE ICE CREAM CAKE

My aunt brought JENI'S ice cream to a dinner I hosted a few months ago. It is the best ice cream I have ever had, but you have to be willing to splurge. ($9 - $13 per pint) I like the Salty Carmel - the perfect combination of sweet and salty. If you are here in Boston, you can buy it at FORMAGGIO.

Indulge and have some ice cream before summer ends!
