Summer BBQs aren’t complete without a healthy dose of ice cream, right? They kind of go hand in hand if you ask me. And you’re asking..aren’t you?

We love to have friends over in the summer for dinner…it’s an easy way to get together, grill some burgers and let the kids run wild. And sometimes unplanned get-togethers are the best kind.

Obviously I like to make desserts… but when friends gather last minute you don’t always have time to get in the kitchen to bake.

Enter Target…my BFF.

They are running a buy three get one free special on Klondike, Magnum, Fruttare brands. So basically they’ve got dessert covered! And everyone likes an ice cream bar. It’s a fact.

After burgers and slip and slide time the kids were ready for dessert…

    Love the Klondike Bars – the Heath is the best – even better than the Heath Candy Bar (which is one of my favorites too). My whole family is addicted to Klondike bars and we have one several times a week!

    If it’s from the ice cream truck, I’m a sucker for the Good Humor Chocolate Eclair ice cream bars. If I’m out and about, either vanilla soft serve or mint chocolate chip ice cream with rainbow sprinkles (because even in my late-30’s there is nothing like ice cream with rainbow sprinkles!).

    My favorite ice cream was from a local place in California. They made the best moca chip! Now that I live in Alaska (we have only been here for a week) I get to try new places and find my new favorite!

    We really like the Kona Ice truck. Its a shaved ice truck where you get to put your own flavors on. My 3 year old likes to get Tiger Blood. Lol I think mostly for the name of it.

    I should say we are more ofa shaved ice and popsicle family because my son and I can’t have dairy. If we do have an ice cream type treat it is either chocolate coconut milk ice cream (So Delicious) or chocolate ice cream sandwiches (Tofutti)

    I love taking graham crackers, spreading them with creamy peanut butter then topping them with cool whip. You then take another graham cracker and make a sandwich, and put it in the freezer until frozen. So delicious!

    My kids and I make ice cream bites. We take a teaspoon of ice cream, roll it in sprinkles, rice krispies, chocolate chips-we can be very creative! and then dip it in magic shell or chocolate syrup and put it back in the freezer for a bit to harden … YUM!

    My ideal summer ice cream treat is a good old fashion milkshake. As a kid, our local ice cream parlor made a toasted marshmallow shake that was always my favorite.

    Do I have to pick just one?! I love pretty much anything chocolatey like Dove bars or magnum bars, or the simple but classic drumstick! If im thirsty though, a fruit popsicle, preferably rasberry or lemon/lime is my choice.

    Although I have an ice cream maker and know how to use it, my favorite summertime ice cream treat is a soft-serve twirl, preferably vanilla and black raspberry, in a sugar cone. It’s a guilty pleasure!

    Klondike bars are my favorite! And I’m loving the Reese’s Cup flavor. SO good. I’ve always had a soft spot for Klondike bars because I remember loving them when I was little and calling them “Polar Bars” I’m not really sure where that came from, I’m guessing the bear on the label.

    Oh my ice cream sandwich, I am probably THE biggest ice cream fan (atic) that there ever was and will be. Growing up in Wisconsin, it was kind of a rule to be. I can and do eat ice cream all year round however I will admit nothing is better than eating a giant bowl or huge waffle cone of homemade vanilla ice cream in the summer time 🙂

    Favorite, as in one? OK, just one… The Neapolitan Klondike Bar. I LOVE the strawberry ice cream in there, and well then there is the chocolate ice cream, OH and the coating, and the vanilla to round it out… Oh thanks, now I have to go get one. Sad, I know but I’ll take one for the team. Step aside, or come with me!
