1 pint favorite store bought premium ice cream (vanilla or chocolate)
favorite flavors/toppings
Remove ice cream from carton by cutting carton away, do not allow ice cream to soften too much, you want it firm, but pliable. (Think Marble Slab--if you've ever watched them mix ice cream) Cut the ice cream into chunks, on a hard surface or cutting board. Add your favorite toppings and smash together. Place in an airtight container and return to freezer to firm up and allow flavors to blend. (30 minutes - 2 hours--more than that and the toppings start to get soft)
