RAINBOW ICE-CREAM
I remember making this for the family, when the kids were younger. Even though they are much older now, I think they would still enjoy it. It looks so pretty served in tall glasses. Try using a cheaper ice-cream if making for kids, it still tastes great and is a little more economical. This recipe can also be made ahead, but not more than 2 days. N.B-- M and M's can be used insted of Smarties.

Steps:
- Soften ice-cream slightly in a large bowl, and when softened stir in Smarties, but DO NOT overmix.
- Spoon Smartie ice-cream back into ice-cream container and freeze.
- When serving try serving the Smartie ice-cream in long tall glasses, and decorate with extra Smarties and a wafer.
Tips:
- To achieve vibrant colors, use high-quality food coloring or natural alternatives like fruit juices and vegetables.
- Chill each layer of ice cream thoroughly before adding the next one to prevent the colors from bleeding together.
- Use an ice cream maker or the hand-churning method for creamier results.
- If using an ice cream maker, follow the manufacturer's instructions for churning time.
- For a softer ice cream, transfer it to the freezer for about 2 hours before serving.
- For a firmer ice cream, freeze it for at least 4-6 hours or overnight.
- Store leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
