A collection of absolutely stunning and mega-delicious desserts with ice cream! From cakes and pies to floats and shakes, this is a complete guide to awesome ice cream desserts!

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

While it’s not technically summer, Memorial Day is the unofficial kick-off to summer. What better time to share a bunch of desserts with ice cream?

And things are seriously heating up around here. Last week we had an intense heatwave with record-breaking temps. It was such a terrible heatwave that when it got down to 88 on Thursday, it felt cool. That said, we just went for a bike ride over at the park by our house, and there is not a cloud in the sky, and nary a breeze. It was beautiful, but hot, so it’s getting back up there again.

I’ve concluded that there is no better time to round up a collection of incredible ice cream desserts to share with you. There’s a few ice cream recipes, yes, but primarily, these are desserts with ice cream. Ice cream cakes and pies. Floats and shakes. Sandwiches and push pops. All things ice cream. Yay!

Salted Peanut Ice Cream Bourbon Coke Floats: Everything about these sounds glorious, from the ice cream to the booze.
