My Ice Cream Maker...Works For Me Wednesday
Why I let this wedding gift sit unused for 6 years, I'll never know. This baby works for me!!! If you have an ice cream maker sitting in a box in the back of your cabinet, now is the time to break it out! If you don't have one, well, you might need one! :)
Homemade ice cream was like a revelation to me. It's a little like homemade bread; once you taste homemade, you never want to to back.And, it's EASY!!! The kids can help, the mix-ins are limitless...and even the mistakes taste good!
Two of my favorite ice cream books are Ben & Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream & Dessert Book
and The Ultimate Ice Cream Book.
Both are great resources and have more recipes than you could ever make. (The Ultimate Ice Cream Book has a recipe for chocolate sorbet that is fat-free...not that we care about those things...and utterly decadent!)
My favorite ice cream EVER is Jerry's Chocolate from the Ben & Jerry's book. (This is the ice cream I served with the coconut cake a few posts back.)
Here we made it and added cookie dough chunks.
Before:
After:
It's not all about chocolate, though...don't forget Key Lime Pie ice cream!
Keep the ice cream freezer canister in the freezer and you'll always be ready to whip up a batch. (I line mine with a piece of plastic wrap to prevent it picking up other smells from the freezer.)
What your favorite ice cream flavor?
