Cinnamon Ice Cream

When posed the question “What type of cake would you like for your birthday?” The last response you expect to hear is; “Make me Cinnamon Ice Cream Mom”. That is unless the person you are asking the question to happens to be my now [holding breath] 20 year old son. And yes, if you are wondering… I had him when I was 10.

By the way the ice cream was a success, he loved it. I’m sure he would have loved it even more if I had gone the extra mile and covered it with corn flakes and then proceeded to deep fry it. (I know, I know… I owe you some deep fried ice cream Joey!)
