(I had to come back to work for a while tonight)

"MousePlanet staff member Andrew Rich, a devoted Fantasia ice cream afficianado, offers fellow fans this back up plan: "It's not the same as getting it in the park, but you can visit your local Cold Stone Creamery and have them mix up a batch. Ask for a base of sweet cream ice cream with pistachio syrup (and chopped pistachios if they have them—chopped walnuts if they don't) mixed with cherry pie filling and banana.” [Here is that recipe only with another nut choice] How to make Fantasia ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery: 1. sweet cream ice cream with pistachio syrup 2. banana 3. cherry pie filling 4. roasted almonds This isn't 100% authentic, because Cold Stone doesn't have pistachio nuts. The almonds work almost as well." At this point I'm game for something that's even close. How about a Cold Stone Meet near you one of these days and test the waters?
