BWW Previews: BREYERS ICE CREAM Recipes for Summer Treats

Top Chef All-Star, author and busy mom, Antonia Lofaso is always looking for fun ways to spend quality time with her family. That's why she's partnered with Breyers Ice Cream, a brand known for helping families create delicious moments together.

Inspired by her childhood and favorite ingredients, Antonia worked with Breyers to create five family-friendly desserts using Breyers Natural Vanilla that are the fine additions to Fourth of July dessert tables or your National Ice Cream Month celebration. Our readers will enjoy these creative takes on Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream.

Stars & Stripes Sundae: This is Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream with Warm Strawberries and Blueberry Whipped Cream Topped with Crushed Pretzels. It's the perfect patriotic dessert for July 4th.

Toasted Almond and Vanilla Arancini: Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream, Toasted Almonds and Hazelnuts and Crushed Italian Amoretti Cookies. This is a sweet version of the savory Italian staple and only takes 5 minutes to make.

Pound Cake & Peaches Sundae: Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream, Toasted Pound Cake, Peaches and Basil. This recipe is a true summer dessert inspired by Antonia's childhood.

Tropical Ice Cream Sandwich: Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream, Grilled Pineapple and Toasted Coconut. This one is a really fun take on the classic summer dessert infused with the sweet aroma of paradise.

Banana "Pudding": Breyers Natural Vanilla Ice Cream, Bananas and Wafer Cookies. This one is simple and fun for the whole family.

Not only are these recipe combinations delicious, but you can truly feel great about serving them. In early February 2015, Breyers announced it will now only source milk and cream from farmers who do not treat their cows with artificial growth hormones and obtain 100 percent of its vanilla from Rainforest Alliance Certified and sustainably farmed sources across all of its offerings.
