MAKE AN ICE CREAM PLATTER FOR PARTIES

It's so simple to put together an ice cream scoop party platter. The first thing to do is choose which flavors of ice cream you would like to include. I loved the combination of Tillamook® Old-Fashioned Vanilla Ice Cream, Tillamook® Mudslide Ice Cream and Tillamook® Oregon Strawberry Ice Cream because it offers a fun contrast of flavors that work alone beautifully but also taste absolutely amazing together.
