It’s a simple fact that you must freeze ice cream, but those darn freezers always make that precious treasure too hard. You love ice cream, and your spoon graveyard is evidence that you just cannot wait for your ice cream to soften.

No one wants to wait for their ice cream to soften.
You have options. You could let it sit for like, ever, on the counter. You could pop it it in the microwave for a few seconds, but you run the risk of creating a milkshake. Running your spoon under hot water could work, but that’s still time wasted waiting for your tap water to heat up when you could be eating your ice cream straight from the container.
Why even wait a few seconds? Here’s what you do in order to have your ice cream scoopable the second you take it out of the freezer.
Step 1: Place your container of ice cream in a plastic bag.
