1 teaspoon fresh orange zest

1 1/2 cups vanilla ice cream

1/2 cup whipped cream

1 tablespoon honey or syrup

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional: 1/2 cup crushed cookies or Nilla wafers

3. Fold in whipped cream by hand for fluffy texture.

4. Layer mixture in popsicle molds or parfait glasses. For bars, add a cookie crust.
