Notes

Serve within 2-3 minutes of assembly to maintain optimal texture

Use chilled dessert plates to prevent ice cream from melting too quickly

For best results, ensure all ingredients are at proper temperature before assembly

Can be customized with different donut flavors or ice cream varieties

Perfect for special occasions and adventurous dessert enthusiasts
