Ice Cream Sunday

 

Happy Sunday! And Happy Father’s Day, too! I’m giving away something sweet to celebrate summer and of course ice cream.

You know, I think I could eat ice cream every day. It’s always my favorite go-to treat when I travel… but I never really get ice cream at restaurants. That just seems boring. Probably because it’s not as fun as going into a scoop shop and looking all the pretty creamy colors. And I always prefer eating ice cream out of a cup. I don’t like to eat it out of a cone because I’m way messy. So if I do get it in a cone, it’s just so I can snap a picture of it. Then I turn it upside down and dump it in a cup and eat it with a spoon – or better yet – I like to break up the waffle cone (never a sugar cone) and use it to scoop out the ice cream. I may be weird.

Okay, back to the giveaway.

Up for grabs is this Cuisinart 2 Qt. Ice Cream Maker and one of my favorite scoop shops new book, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Cream Desserts. Yum! If you have her first book, you’ll want to get your hands on this one, too. It’s divided up into sections like ice cream parlor, bakeshop and sundae bar. So fun!

Here’s the sweet scoop for a chance to win them both:

  • To enter leave a comment on this post and share your favorite ice cream flavor and how you like to enjoy it. Cone, cup, bowl… barrel ; ) ?
  • Deadline to enter is Wednesday, June 18, 2014 at 7:00 pm ET. SORRY, Time’s Up! Winner announced below.
  • One winner will be chosen at random and announced sometime Wednesday evening on this post.

Good luck guys!

I’ve been reading all your favorites for the last couple of days and now I need all the flavors! and a big spoon of course.

  115. I love mint chip ice cream! I use to get a scoop every day at lunch! My favorite way to eat it is as an ice cream sandwich between chocolate fudge cookies! You,!

  133. I love a big scoop of mint choc ice cream on a waffle cone. Miam <3

  134. Cookie dough ice cream in a waffle bowl!

  135. Im a sucker for ice cream so this is a hard one. Some sticky toffee pudding ice cream always hits the spot though. In a waffle bowl! =D

  136. I’m definitely a chocolate girl, all the way. The only acceptable variants for me are ones that add *more* chocolate — chocolate chips, chocolate swirl, Oreo pieces. Sometimes I’ll add a bit of cinnamon to the chocolate, but I’ve never been brave enough to try chili powder.

    Like you, I prefer bowls to cones, but it’s because I’ve never been too keen on the taste or texture of the cones themselves. Besides, with a bowl, there’s more room for toppings!

  137. Hokey Pokey!!! With rainbow sprinkles and waffle cone!!!

  138. I love mint chocolate chip or green tea ice cream in a waffle cone.

  139. I’d love to have cotton candy flavour right in the box! With strawberry sauce topping!!!

  144. I love rocky road! In a bowl. As a sundae. With marshmallow topping. And whipped cream. And a cherry. (Not that I’ve given it much thought!)

  145. Classic vanilla in a cone! I like that nice combination part at the bottom of cone and ice cream! So good!

  146. Classic vanilla in a cone! I like that nice combination part at the bottom of cone and ice cream! So good!

  147. Classic vanilla through and through. In a cone of course so I can get those awesome solid bites of ice cream and cone when I get to the bottom!

  148. Anything chocolate, and I’m a bowl kinda gal too.

  149. Coconut. Cup. Perfect.

  150. I love me some salted caramel ice cream in a cup! I eat too slow to eat from a cone and it always ends up melting in my hand so a cup is always the best way to go for me. :)

  151. My favorite flavor varies…but right now I could go for some avocado ice cream from Mitchell’s! And in a cup :)

  152. Any flavor with caramel in it and I love it in a waffle cone.

  153. Rocky road and vanilla on a sugar cone can’t be beat! And being picky, I like the vanilla on the bottom. :)

  160. I love mint chocolate chip in a cup with lots of hot fudge on top!

  161. I am a huge fan of peanut butter and chocolate ice cream – the kind with big strips of peanut butter goodness randomly throughout the chocolate. So good! I put mine in glass ice cream cups, smother it in melted peanut butter and whipped cream, then add sprinkles and colored sugar.

    I have to say, though, I’ve become a huge fan of frozen yogurt. Umpqua has this amazing caramel macadamia nut crunch that tastes better than ice cream to me. I could eat that all the time.

  162. I love green tea ice cream in a bowl!!

  163. Ice cream is DEFINITELY one of my favorite desserts (I think my 10 month old daughter’s DNA is at least 1/4 ice cream, based on the sheer amount of it I ate while pregnant)! My favorite flavor kinda depends on the brand, but in my opinion you can’t go wrong with pralines and cream, anything cake batter-y, or just plain, old-fashioned vanilla. Forget the cone, just gimme a bowl and spoon and I’m good to GO!

  164. Coffee ice cream with dark chocolate and toasted almonds on top. In a bowl, topped with whipped cream and a cherry on top… mmmmmmm I can just see it and taste it now ?????

  167. Ice cream is DEFINITELY one of my favorite desserts (I think my 10 month old daughter’s DNA is at least 1/4 ice cream, based on the sheer amount of it I ate while pregnant)! My favorite flavor kinda depends on the brand, but in my opinion you can’t go wrong with pralines and cream, anything cake batter-y, or just plain, old-fashioned vanilla. Forget the cone, just gimme a bowl and spoon and I’m good to GO!

  168. My favorite is a family recipe, Milky Way. We only make it once a year for Independence Day so it’s all the more special. No need for a cone, just a big bowl!

  169. mint chocolate chip forever!

  170. My favorite is lemon buttermilk made with fresh picked Meyer lemons. Yum!

  171. Praline Pecan in a waffle cone.

  173. Mint chocolate chip in a bowl nothing on top.

  174. I love Pralines and Cream! I love to eat it in a sugar cone :)

  175. I am seriously in love with Ben and Jerry’s Phish Food Ice Cream. That stuff is sinful! Chocolate ice cream, caramel and marshmallow swirl and fudge fish!

  176. I love the chocolate one with chocolate sprinkles in a waffle cup from Cold Stone!Is very big and delicious!:P

  185. I love Cotton Candy or Bubble Gum from Baskin Robbins. Either is best on a sugar cone. YUM!

  186. My all-time favorite easy-to-find is Cookies and Cream, but my all-time harder to locate (and probably discontinued) is Ben and Jerry’s Dublin Mudslide. I like my ice cream straight out of the carton; hey, I’m a single girl!

  187. I’d love to make some chocolate ice cream in this for a yummy banana split!!!

    :)

  188. it’s well a hard question! i really love coffee, peanut butter, and almonds flavor so i guess i will mix it all up! <3
    ICE CREAM SANDWICHED BETWEEN OREO IS THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD!

  189. I love anything with a combination of chocolate and coffee :) mint choc chip is my go to flavour and if I am at home I will mix vanilla ice cream with nutella and chopped nuts for a treat. My favourite ice cream shop is Simmos Ice Creamery, they have so many flavours and its all made on site of course its a 2.5 hour drive from my house but when you want good ice cream you have to be prepared to travel :)

  190. Its so hard to choose just one… I would say it’s a fair tie between chocolate and cookie dough…yum! No cones for me–just the taste of sweet, creamy ice cream is enough to hit the spot!
