National Sundae Day is November 11th, and on this day, How to Make Creamy Vanilla Ice Cream is a great thing to have under your belt.
Sundaes are such beautiful desserts, especially served in good crystal, fruit nappies, so you can see the ice cream from every angle.
I’m a believer in making my own ice cream, and enhancing the finished product with real whipped cream, your favorite nuts or fruit, and a maraschino on top.
