As the most wonderful time of the year approaches, people are looking for the perfect presents for their friends and family. Luckily, Friendly’s Restaurants are here with the perfect gift for your favorite foodie, all in the name of saving room for ice cream.
The iconic restaurant chain is releasing Friendly’s Half Cookbook, with beloved recipes from the Friendly’s menu, all conveniently half-portioned, ensuring that anyone can indulge in their favorite meal and still have plenty of room for ice cream. The cookbook features five Friendly’s recipes as well as $20 worth of coupons to use in any Friendly’s restaurant. Just in time for the holidays, everyone’s soon-to-be-favorite present is available for purchase in softcover ($21.53) or hardcover ($38) on Amazon.
“At Friendly’s, we believe ice cream makes the meal, and during the holidays, everyone needs a little help to save room for their favorite delicious treat,” says Friendly’s Restaurants CMO David Ellis. “Two-thirds of the people that visit Friendly’s have ice cream during their visit. This cookbook is inspired by the one-third that doesn’t, with half-sized recipes of some of our favorite items. We think that this cookbook is a great gift for the holidays, and by Saving Room for Ice Cream, it would go well with a gift card for your favorite Friendly’s sundae.”
The happy endings don’t stop there. Guests can stop by their local Friendly’s store or head online for a $5 bonus card with a $25 gift card purchase. It’s like getting paid to shop for the perfect holiday stocking stuffers for friends and family.
Recipes in the cookbook include pasta, burgers, and SuperMelts. Classic favorites such as the Honey BBQ Chicken Melt and All-American Burger, as well as new dishes like Bangin’ Beef Stroganoff, are included in half-sized portions. Each recipe includes a suggested ice cream to pair it with, so finding a perfect match has never been easier. From sundaes to shakes, Fribbles to floats, Friendly’s has a frozen treat to satisfy any sweet tooth.
Each of the dishes featured in the cookbook are available to enjoy at a Friendly’s location. Customers can dine-in, order online or use the Friendly’s App for takeout and delivery.
