Was introduced to ice cream from Nicholas Creamery in Atlantic Highlands this past weekend when a friend brought pints of Chocolate Bailey’s and Egg Nog to our party. Both were delicious, though the chocolate chunks in the Bailey’s one were so large that it actually hurt my teeth to chew them. The Egg Nog was…
