FAQ

Can I use regular ice cream instead of parve?

Yes, substitute with any coffee-flavored ice cream. This will make the dessert dairy rather than parve.

What if I don't have waffle cones?

Graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or chocolate cookies work well. Crush to fine crumbs and mix with melted margarine.

How long will this keep in the freezer?

Store covered for up to one week. The texture is best within the first few days.
