Mirj!! I can't believe that this recipe has just sat here! It was delicious! I couldn't find blueberry ice cream to save my life so I turned to trusty Zaar and there it was! :) I used Kim D's Blueberry Ice Cream and it was good. Easy to put together,creamy and delicious! I can see why it's so popular at your get together. Thanks for posting!!
