The heat of summer has arrived full force in the south.
I love it! That heat promises days full of family splashing in whatever water we can find, evenings by the fire pit, games of tag, inviting friends over, and playing catch.
That extra heat and time together can also be a recipe for sibling bickering. When those tempers flare up on a hot day, I know it’s time for an icy treat to press pause on arguments, and cool little bodies and tempers.
A favorite summer-time dessert from my childhood is Double Chocolate Pound Cake. The rich chocolate cake is the perfect side to a scoop of ice cream. Last week I found EDY’S® SLOW CHURNED® Caramel Delight Light Ice Cream at Walmart and immediately knew it would be the perfect companion to my Double Chocolate Pound Cake. You can never go wrong with caramel and chocolate, right!?!
