Simple. Perfect. I served it as an ending to a dinner party. Bites were taken and a silence settled over the table, then you'd hear, "mmmmmm", and various grunts of pleasure. Hard to believe something this easy is this good. Be sure to use good quality vanilla ice cream (mine was homemade. I used espresso grounds in a standard electric drip coffee maker, and it worked perfectly for this purpose. I topped it with a sprinkle of chopped chocolate-covered espresso beans.
