One of my favorite parts of summer is that its finally ice cream season! Ok, well, all year is ice cream season for me, but nothing beats a cold ice cream treat on a hot day though.

Whether it’s at a ballgame, at the amusement park, at the beach, or just in your own backyard, some of the best summer memories involve ice cream. This is why I am such a fan of Blue Bunny Ice Cream. Plus, in addition to the regular tubs of Ice Cream, Blue Bunny also makes some great novelty ice cream treats such as ice cream sandwiches and mini cones. These are wonderful for the kids!

One of my favorite ice cream creations is a candy and ice cream blend. This is similar to the ice cream and candy treats that you can find at major ice cream stores. They are easy to make, taste great, and are pretty inexpensive to make at home.

Blue Bunny Super Fudge Brownie and M&Ms Blend

This blend is my favorite, but that’s just because I am a true chocolate lover! All you need to make this chocolatey delight is a container of Blue Bunny Super Fudge Brownie Ice Cream (it already has chunks of chocolate and brownies in the ice cream!), a bag of M&Ms, chocolate syrup, and a tiny bit of milk.

Your ice cream will make up the bulk of this recipe so add as much ice cream as you want to the blender.

Put the candy in a plastic bad (squeeze out the air) and use a rolling pin or a bottle to crush the candy into small pieces.

Add the candy and the chocolate syrup to the ice cream in the blender. Then I put in about three tablespoons of milk. The milk will make the mixture thicker or thinner depending on how much you add. More milk and it will be more like a milkshake, less and it will be more like regular ice cream.

Now, blend the entire mixture until it is smooth. Pour into a glass or a mug and enjoy your ice cream treat!

That isn’t the only blend you can make, however. My husband loves blends made from peanut butter, and my kids love something a little, well, gummier! Be creative. Experiment with different candies, syrups, and ice creams.

Here are just a few more of my favorite combinations.

All of your Blue Bunny Ice Cream favorites are available in the ice cream case at your local Walmart. The kids also love the novelty items such as the mini ice cream cones, which are not only easy to eat but are also great to grab-and-go!

Additionally, mark your calendars for June 20. Walmart is hosting Blue Bunny Ice Cream demos and you can get some free samples of Blue Bunny Vanilla Ice Cream and Biscoff. I know that we will be there!
