Ice Cream Review

Celebrate National Ice Cream Day July 19th

I don’t think you need an actual reason to enjoy Ice cream, but if you do, National Ice Cream Day is upon us.  Summer is officially here and by that I mean, hotter than $+#@ days.  I thought this would be the perfect time to reflect on ice creams past, present and future.  Who doesn’t love ice cream?  I have put together a collection of some of my favorite ice cream recipes from blogs past, a Ice Cream Review

If ever there was a better time to get out the old ice cream maker, I can’t think of it.  This summer, treat yourself to the ultimate summer dessert.  I don’t have 31 flavors to share, but I do have a few favorites.

I have been making ice cream for family and friends since the beginning of time. It’s my signature dessert.  There’s almost nothing better than real, homemade vanilla ice cream with real vanilla beans.  I pair that with a decadent homemade chocolate sauce and believe me, no one’s upset about it.

Rainbow Sprinkles on Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, never disappoints!

Here’s my favorite recipe for homemade Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.  It’s made with a little less sugar and a little less egg, but trust me, you don’t need it.  Here’s the link: https://wp.me/p9KEfL-2oF

Salted Caramel Ice Cream

I cannot begin to express to you how much I love this Salted Caramel Ice Cream.  It’s over the top delicious.  A bit more effort, but completely worth it.  It’s great on it’s own and also in other desserts too.  Here’s a link: https://wp.me/p9KEfL-1gY

This float is made with rich, dark beer.  It’s worth a try if you’re feeling the adventure.  Here’s a link: https://wp.me/p9KEfL-1h0

Double Chocolate Zucchini Cookie Coconut Ice Cream Sandwiches

Okay, one last ice cream, this one is an ice cream sandwich.  I really love ice cream sandwiches.  They remind me of being a kid and by the way, still a favorite.  I made the cookies a bit healthy, but no one will know they’re full of zucchini. (Seriously, I can add zucchini to anything!).  These cookies are soft, perfect for an ice cream sandwich.  The ice cream is “nice-cream”, dairy free because it’s made with coconut milk instead of cream.

Well, I bet even if I haven’t motivated you to get that ice cream maker out of the back of the cabinet, you’re probably in the mood for some ice cream about now.

Happy summertime my friends.  Stay healthy and safe.
