let me just start by saying i am in no way a big ice cream fan, just some bad experiances with it when i was i kid but my boyfriend adores it so i thought i would find a nice recipe for him and make him something special. well i chose this one and once i finished cooking it and spread it on his ice cream i couldnt resist trying it....and to my disbelief i ate about three bowls, if you add hot fudge on top of it, its just a dream in a bowl! LOVED IT!!!!
