This indulgent dessert toast combines the warm crispiness of toasted bread with the sweet richness of Aohata Verde Sugar Butter Toast Spread and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. A popular Japanese-style dessert café item that’s easy to make at home!

Ingredients (Serves 2)

• 1/2 loaf sandwich bread (unsliced or thick-cut)
• 1 scoop vanilla ice cream
• 
  Aohata Verde Sugar Butter Toast Spread, as needed

Instructions

1. Cut out a square cavity from the center of the bread loaf, keeping the crust intact to form a “box.” Slice the removed bread into 4 bite-sized pieces.
2. Spread Aohata Verde Sugar Butter Toast Spread generously on the inside walls, bottom, and rim of the bread box, as well as on the cut pieces.
3. Place the bread box and cut pieces on a baking tray and toast in a toaster oven until golden and crispy.
4. Fill the bread box with the toasted pieces and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Serve immediately.

Tip: Add a drizzle of honey, caramel sauce, or fresh berries for extra flair. Toasting time may vary by oven, so watch closely to avoid burning.
