I'm amazed at how this frozen treat tastes like ice cream without using any heavy cream. As you've probably noticed, we've been consuming a lot of ice cream and desserts in general lately, so I skewed a little to the healthier side on this one. The realization that I have only a few more weeks until graduate school starts hit me hard, so I had...

I probably say this about every ice cream I make, but oh my God, this is the best ice cream EVER! It's a sugar cookie flavored ice cream with chunks of those addictive little frosted animal cookies (homemade ones I might add, which you can read all about right here), and lots of sprinkles! I based the ice cream recipe off of the cake batter...

The last frozen treat served at our July 4th celebration was the raspberry Pinot Noir sorbet. I wanted something fruity and fat-free to accompany the vanilla bean and peanut butter fudge ice creams. I honestly don't remember what wine we bought to make this, so I can't tell you that. I'm annoyed at myself for throwing the bottle away so...

I didn't specifically make this for the party, but we had leftovers, and it was just so delicious that we wanted to share. Amazingly enough, it actually isn't made with any heavy cream. I found the base of this recipe online and figured it would be a good time to use up some cans of sweetened condensed and evaporated milk sitting in the pantry....

In addition to the cherry bars, I also baked up a lattice-top peach pie using a filling from Chukar Cherries that I spruced up with some fresh fruit and spices (however the crust was completely homemade). With both the pie and the cherry bars, I wanted a basic, but still delicious, vanilla ice cream that our guests could scoop on top. The best...

The other day Dustin was complaining that there was no more snickerdoodle ice cream left and that I should have made more. I completely surprised him when I opened the freezer and said, "I don't have snickerdoodle ice cream, but I do have maple syrup ice cream complete with maple creme cookies." He was pretty floored that I happened to have made...

Finally I made snickerdoodle ice cream! Since complaining about the ice cream shop in Seattle being out of their signature flavor, we have since made it back there and tried it. It was good ice cream, but for some reason I was under the impression that it would have chunks of snickerdoodle cookie in it. Well it didn't, so I was disappointed and...

I've been wanting to try the snickerdoodle ice cream flavor (a cinnamon ice cream with actual chunks of snickerdoodle cookie in it) at Bluebird Microcreamery, a small local ice cream producer here in Seattle ever since we went there towards the end of last summer. That first time, Dustin and I were sharing ice cream. Snickerdoodle didn't really...

Many moons ago when I first bought and flipped through Molly Moon's Homemade Ice Cream cookbook, I remember seeing a recipe for blood orange sorbet. The description of the sorbet described the flavor as "amazing" and "bright" to "have kicking around \[your] mouth in cold, wet January." Well I remembered those words. Now it's mid-January and cold...

Seattle's favorite doughnut shop recently came out with a line of doughnut ice creams, and as you can imagine, I was psyched to get into the cafe and try a scoop or two, particularly the apple fritter variety. The apple fritter is arguably Top Pot's best doughnut. So we went in and tried a scoop of the apple fritter along with a scoop of the...
