Hybrid doughnut puts new spin on ice cream sandwich

WASHINGTON — This isn’t your grandma’s dessert.

It’s called the Milky Bun, and its creators — Scott Ngheim and Andy Nguyen — stuff homemade ice cream into a warm glazed doughnut. It’s the staple of the Afters Ice Cream shop in Los Angeles.

“We needed something more in order to get people really excited,” Nguyen told NBC Washington. They also tried waffles and breads to hold the ice cream in place.
