Anyone who has watched "Barefoot Contessa" knows that Ina Garten somehow makes the dinner party look completely effortless. In a Today show episode, Garten shared a quick and easy three-course meal that included a Caesar salad with homemade dressing, lasagna for a hearty entree, and an effortless three-ingredient dessert.
Garten’s go-to dessert recipe is two scoops of the vanilla ice cream, with a dose of Limoncello liqueur over the top, and then served with some store-bought biscotti. The simple dessert requires virtually no time in the kitchen and no skill at baking.
According to Garten herself, the upgraded ice cream is a huge crowd-pleaser. The recipe does not name a specific brand of ice cream to use, but Garten admitted that when it comes to buying vanilla ice cream, she reaches for Häagen-Dazs, Ben and Jerry's, or Ciao Bello, via The Kitchn.
