Ice Cream Sodas - Barefoot Contessa / Ina Garten image

Another one of Ina's recipes... I watched her make this on her show and thought that it looked soo yummy for a (very :)) special treat. You can make as many or as few as you need. What's nice about this dessert is you can customize it for each person with whichever ice cream / sauce they prefer. It would be great for a crowd. I estimated the serving size to the sauces, but am not sure if it's right as I have not tried this yet - but wanted to put the recipe here for safekeeping.
