Preparation

Step 1

Line a rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper.

In a medium bowl, combine the ice cream and candy; mix well.

Shape into 6 well-rounded scoops and place on the baking sheet. Freeze until firm, or until ready to use.

Fill 6 tall glasses or mugs three-quarters full with root beer soda and top each with a scoop of the ice cream mixture.
Serve immediately with straws.

Notes:
Make sure to not overfill the glasses with the root beer because you'll need room for the foam that forms when you add the ice cream.
