Life has taken us on quite a wild ride this past year! We have missed you all and our blog. We are so glad to be back! We are kicking off the hot weather season with a super easy frozen dessert. Please welcome our Individual 

Buttery Candied Popcorn (Screaming Yellow Zonkers)

Buttery Candied Popcorn (Screaming Yellow Zonkers)

Have you ever tasted Screaming Yellow Zonkers? They were a big deal when we were kids and we loved them well into adulthood – until they stopped making them in  2007. They were this weirdly yellow, buttery, sugar shellacked popcorn that we couldn’t get enough

Ice Cream Pie

Father’s Day is fast approaching and we thought we’d share an easy and delightful Ice Cream Pie that can be customized to fit your particular father figure tastes. Because who doesn’t love ice cream pie in the summertime? We love the combination of chocolate crust,
