It’s Orange Creamsicle Day! Let’s Celebrate!

The taste of a cold orange creamsicle takes me back to my childhood during the dog days of summer. I remember having to lap up the creamy goodness before it melted and ran down my hands. So, I created a homemade version of these dreamy creamsicles using Hiland Dairy Vanilla Ice Cream to help celebrate this glorious day.
