Instructions:
Blend all the ingredients. Add small amounts of milk until the drink is slushy. Serve in chilled cocktail glass. Top with whipped cream (optional)

Here are a few of Mark's Specialty Drinks.  Of course, they ALL taste best with Polar Cave Ice Cream!

Mexican Eskimo:  Vanilla Ice Cream, Kahlua, milk

BEER BRATS
Recipe courtesy of Rick Rollo
Ingredients:  1 dozen brats
                Beer to cover
                  1 medium large sweet onion
                  2 ounces (1/2 stick) butter

Place brats in a Dutch oven with onions and butter, cover the brats with beer.  Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer until brats are cooked.  Remove brats and set aside beer mixture.  Grill brats until golden brown and return to beer mixture until ready to serve.  Serve brats on fresh baked brat buns with sauerkraut, onions, green peppers, ketchup and/or mustard. 


Guiness Stout Brownies
45 minutes - 15 minutes prep time - Serves 32
Ingredients:  1 cup all-purpose flour
                  3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
                  1/4 teaspoon salt
                  6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into cubes
                  8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
                  3/4 cup white chocolate chips
                  4 large eggs, at room temperature
                  1 cup superfine sugar
                  1 1/4 cups Guinness stout, see Note below
                  1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
                  1/8 cup powdered sugar
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with nonstick foil.  In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt until evenly combined.  Set aside.  Melt butter, bittersweet chocolate, and white chocolate chips in a double-boiler over very low heat, stirring constantly until melted.  Remove from heat.  In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.  Add melted chocolate mixture, beating until combined.  Beat reserved flour mixture into melted chocolate mixture.  Whisk in Guinness stout beer.  The batter will seem a bit thin.  Drop semi-sweet chocolate chips evenly on top of batter (some will sink in).  Pour into prepared baking pan.  Bake 30-40 minutes on center rack in the oven, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out almost clean.  Let brownies cool, uncovered, to room temperature.  Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving. 
NOTE:  The Guinness should be at room temperature.  This recipe uses a little less than a standard 12-ounce bottle of Guinness stout beer.  Do not include foam in the measurement.  Either spoon off the foam or let it rest until the foam subsides.
