"This recipe looks involved but it's actually quite easy - the trick is allowing time to freeze each step so that the ice cream doesn't melt while you are assembling and dipping. They can be made start to finish and stored in the freezer for up to a week (probably longer, actually!). Honestly, they are so worth the multiple steps: did I mention the comment "best dessert ever?"..."
