I will be right over. I love a good Sundae! Breyers ice cream is one of the best!
This recipe looks wonderful! I love the addition of the strawberries.
Sundae’s are my favorite! You can make them anyway you want and I love to create my own stuff ;). Great idea to use these ingredients!
Being Gluten free, I have a hard time find ice creams that are all natural! That ‘s what I love about Breyers!! YUM!
There is only one reason I need to have Breyers. It’s in the house!
I’m definitely a fan of Breyer’s ice creams. This sundae sounds really good. I’m a big fan of pretzels.
Ooo I love your idea of being able to add your own toppings. I usually just eat plain ice cream when at home , I need to remember toppings.
That looks so yummy! We love Breyers ice cream, too. It’s almost weekend and I need to stock up on some ice cream.
That sundae looks yummy!! I love ice cream and especially Breyers!!
i never had pretzel on ice cream 🙂 but that recipe looks good. My son and daughter loves pretzel, I think they are going to love this combination
You were asking how would I like my Breyer’s ice cream? I like it in my belly! Yummy. I could not care less if it was just plain ice cream or made in to a sundae or a parfait. Breyer’s is the best!
Haven’t tried BREYER’S before. If given the chance, I would love to taste test some of their flavors.
We love Breyers Ice Cream too, it’s one of the best there is. Your combo looks yummy, I can hear it calling for my name! lol
We love Breyers ice cream in our household. I love how soft the ice cream’s consistency is..definitely much easier to scoop out of the container. Thanks for sharing that sundae ingredient list 🙂
Yummy, this looks delicious. I love ice cream. 🙂
Yuuummmy!! My husband is a much bigger ice cream fan that I am, but we both love Breyer’s. We have 2 containers in the freezer right now. AND I have some berries…I may just make this treat this weekend!
That looks soooo good! I love ice cream and I would love to try your recipe.
Wow. This makes me want to tr the Breyers vanilla. The flavor is very tempting
gosh we love breyers ice cream. It’s by far our favorite of all the ice creams! i love the addition of the blueberries.
That looks delicious in every sense of the word! But alas, I can’t eat ice cream unless it’s vegan since I’m sensitive to anything that is derived from milk. My family would love this, though!
This ice-cream treat looks delicious. I have to get some ice-cream ASAP
Oh that ice cream treat looks soooooo good! I could really eat tons of those because it has been scorching hot lately! Looks like the summer heat is here a lot longer! Thanks for sharing!
I haven’t tried Breyer’s yet but your recipe looks really good! I wonder if they sell that brand here.
