SPT: Mmmm Ice Cream and...

Self Portrait Tuesdays


I love soft serve chocolate and vanilla ice cream in a cone. How about you? But, if I can't get this wonderful treat I'll settle for this...

swimming and batter licking...

Good...



Better...



Best!


And using apple sauce in place of oil made it even better!




Do you like brownies w/ or without nuts?
Do you lick the batter when you're finished making brownies?
What's your favorite ice cream?
Did you do SPT?

Very clever: good, better, best! I'd be happiest with the good. With nuts! And I love batter too.

Brownies with nuts are the best. I don't lick the batter, but I better leave it for my husband--he loves it! I love rocky road ice cream.

Oh my Goodness you made me want one of those... Ok- do you know what it is like to turn on the oven when it is 110' outside & terrible. I can't make brownies right now. Why'd you do that to me!!!
I love brownies without nuts. I do not like nuts in anything.
Too funny you are..
Great SPT

Rachael said...

I like brownies without nuts and now that I have kids I don't get to lick anymore! But brownies are my FAVORITE treat!

Courtney said...

OK...I seriously have a problem...my mouth is watering with desire for your yummy goodness! I love 'em hot and gooey so that you can mix the hot hot with the cold cold if the ice cream...YUMMMMM-O!

"Best" indeed!

I think I've put on 10lbs just reading all these spts.

And yes, we're totally up for camping! The kids said "yaaaaaa" when we brought it up. Now let's just pick a central place

Love brownie sundaes!!!

Kim Sue said...

ooey, gooey is best - basically half baked so you need a spoon to get them out of the pan - topped immediately with vanilla bean or homemade vanilla ice cream...no nuts.

My favorite, yummy brownies and ice cream. I wish I had it right now. :-) We go to Abbott's in Rochester. That is where I grew up. Not sure if they have them in Buffalo, but you could try.

Yummy brownies. With nuts for sure, but without the ice cream!

Sarah said...

I enjoy chocolate soft serve with strawberry topping. Those brownies look very good.

Rebekah said...

you know, i'll never turn down a brownie, nuts or no nuts.

MaryRC said...

LOVE BATTER! sometimes even more than the baked treat. Great point on what is best. so clever!

Claudissima said...

Dacia said...

I love ice cream with homemade brownies! Yum, can you say divine!

Brownies + icecream + chocolate sauce is NUMBER ONE in my book!

Although lately, out of laziness, icecream + chocolate sauce + Rediwhip + chopped pecans = heaven in my mouth!

brownies without nuts.
yes, lick the spatula, bowl and a finger full of batter just for good measure!
Chocolate chocolate and more chocolate -- ice cream.
