#Summertime2017 is here and what is more refreshing for summer then a fudge brownies & tropical ice cream cake.
This cake is so fresh and delicious, first I made a fudge brownies, and made my vanilla ice-cream and blended it with all the tropical flavors I love, pineapple, pineapple juice, fresh strawberries, and coconut flakes. Just before serving I added some coconut flakes on top, next time you are planning to make an ice-cream, try this one.
