I made this for my brother's birthday, and I thought it was really good, but a little sweet.

Made this for a gathering. It was ok for me, I think next time may be I will use better quality Icecream. Love the topping. Also it was a work of art to serve it LOL. I did keep it out for 20 mins before serving to soften it a bit & that helped. added :that I had a pan which I kept for later & it tasted YUMMMMMMMM so may be it gets better with time.
