ottawa foodies

Hi Everyone,

Next week we have some family coming in that used to live in Ottawa up until about 20 years ago. They loved the Green Valley and used to always go there when they came back for visits. We are having them for dinner and I am thinking of trying to do the Mickey Mouse ice cream dessert which I don't think is incredibly difficulty.

Unfortunately, I can't really remember what it looks like. Would anyone be able to give a description of the mickey mouse ice cream dessertthat I could use to replicate it? A picture would obviously be ideal but I doubt there are many floating around (alas nothing came up on various google image searches).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!

I've never been, but was it an ice cream popsicle thing like this?

I'm sure I've seen something similar done with a round scoop of vanilla ice cream and then thin brown chocolate cookies for ears. Not sure about the face though...

medicinejar No recipes here but a possible lead. A google search tells me they made a Mickey Mouse ice cream sundae: outintheparkinglot.blogspot.com

Fresh Foodie is right. 1 big scoop of Vanilla Ice cream. Chocolate wafers for ears. Chocolate sprinkles for the brown hair around the head. Then I think just marishino cherries for eyes and moth and nose. Somewhere I am sure was whipped topping too.....

I thought it was a cup of ice cream with chocolate rounds for the ears?
Really, I can't remember at all what it was.

Sounds pretty creative- I'm pretty sure it was not something on a stick.
Most likely something served in one of those metal sundae cups??

It was a scoop of vanilla ice cream, covered with chocolate shot, disks of chocolate for the ears, and the face was made with maraschino cherries. I think there was a whipped cream collar around the head. It was served in a small bowl. It was divine.

Thanks everyone for your answers. Your right pretty tasty, it was not on a stick but I really appreciate the effort Tina.

Thanks to all of you for the descriptions and the link to the blog (green cheeries for eyes sounds about right!) and I think I have enough that I can come close at least!

Three cheers to all of you!
