Indeed! That is: cream, with at least 10% fat content and... close to 40% with some other brands!
I like chocolate milk as a recovery, and when I know I will have to let my milk bottle sit for more than a couple of hours, I like Edge Recovery powder.
But, then, if you wanna indulge yourself, there is always ice milk that could fit the treat: less fat than ice cream, with still a creamy frozen feeling, some proteins and not too much sugar (usually the flavors are nothing close to "Super-Rocky-Road-with-complete-cookie-dough-chunks)! And, to follow in that direction: frozen yogurt is not bad either, but Ice Milk is closer to the taste of real ice cream.
