Some Interesting Ice Cream Toppings

I'm not a dessert guy most of the time. But sometimes it's nice to have a little something to satisfy the sweet tooth right before bed. And in the summertime, ice cream is always a good choice. But rather than buying those expensive containers with fancy ingredients mixed in, I just keep a tub of Blue Bell vanilla on hand. Then I get creative with some topping combinations. Sure, Hershey's syrup is always a good choice, but try these mixes on top and see what you think.

Cracker Jack: Caramel sauce, popcorn and peanuts.

Pina Colada: Pineapple and coconut

S'Mores: Mini marshmallows, hot fudge and crumbled graham crackers

Heath Bar: Crumbled toffee pieces and chocolate syrup

Trail mix: Salted peanuts, raisins and chocolate chips

Bananas Foster: Sliced bananas and caramel (and maybe a couple drops of rum flavoring...or rum)

Cherry cobbler: Cherry pie filling and crumbled shortbread

I could go on and on, but it's your turn...post your own combinations in the comments section below.
