Students create new ice cream flavor

ITHACA, N.Y. (AP) - December 2, 2008

Cornell University students came up with the flavor fit for the holidays.

Slammin' Yamz is made with vanilla ice cream, yam puree, molasses, cinnamon and nutmeg - with a marshmallow swirl.

It wins the annual ice cream contest for the school's food science students.

Slammin' Yamz will also be sold at the Cornell Dairy Bar during the spring semester.
