In the summer time, a great family tradition is having an ice cream night. We get out our lovely homemade bowls and set up a lovely scene outside to sit and enjoy with friends and family. Almost any person on this planet enjoys ice cream. Whatever type of sweets you’re into there an ice cream flavor to go along with that dessert. Of course everyone has there favorite specialty ice cream but, what if you’re having a lot of people over like my family ice cream tradition? That is when the classic flavors come out. With their sweet but subtle taste it can be created into anyone’s favorite creation with toppings! I make an ice cream recipe that is classic and will please everyone!  This recipe will make about a quart which is the perfect size for having a few friends over for a bbq or maybe even a summer picnic.
