What a lovely treat. it was excellent Hey Jude. I enjoyed it very much. Rich, thick, creamy, soda...yummy. I did substitute with coffee ice cream as I was out of chocolate. Thanks for sharing your decadent treat. I will be enjoying this again. Can't wait to try it with chocolate ice cream...Made for the Summer 09 - Comfort Cafe.
