30 Ways To Take Ice Cream To The Next Level This Summer

by Kaylin Pound

There are few things in life that can compare to eating a couple scoops (or an entire pint) of delicious ice cream.

Ice cream is probably my favorite thing on the face of the earth (aside from pizza, of course).

It's the ultimate snack for a hot summer day, and there's a delectable flavor out there to please even the pickiest of palettes.

Plus, it's the perfect dessert to drown your sorrows in whenever someone breaks up with you, because let's face it, your BFFs Ben and Jerry are the only ones who won't judge you for inhaling an entire container of Half Baked.

But, if you're still eating your scoops with a boring old spoon or packed into a cone, I have some bad news for you.

You're eating your ice cream like a basic b*tch.

There's actually a lot of ways to make this frozen treat way more badass, you just need to think out of the box, or in this case, the bowl.

From ice cream sandwiches made mini blueberry pies, to frosty, booze-infused scoops and next-level ice cream bowls made out of brownies, the possibilities are pretty much endless when it comes to giving your plain-old vanilla a seriously epic upgrade.

Take a look at the pictures below to see 30 ways to make your ice cream better than you ever thought possible.
