I have a love affair with almond, and I have a natural weakness for ice cream in general, so it goes without saying that I couldn’t stop sneaking spoonfuls of this simple yet intoxicatingly-almond ice cream. I used my French Vanilla Ice Cream recipe, substituting almond extract for the vanilla, and adding poppy seeds for some visual flair.

Though I know that horchata is typically served in the heat of summer as a cool, refreshing beverage, I also think of this cinnamon-spiced rice drink in autumn. When you make it at home you can use less sugar, sweetening it to taste.

These prosciutto-wrapped goat cheese-stuffed jalapeno poppers look fancier than they really are. In terms of the ingredient list and the preparation steps they are as simple as an appetizer gets. Dress them up for a holiday cocktail party or share them at a casual summer BBQ.

I have had the opportunity to work on the Pass the Prosciutto – Gluten Free Holiday Entertaining campaign through Prosciutto di Parma. The Consorzio del Prosciutto di Parma (the organization that certifies this ham from the hills around Parma, Italy and gives the brand of ham its quality seal of approval) is celebrating 50 years although the tradition of making this ham is more than 1,000 years old.

Cinnamon-sugar is a favorite comfort combo for me. It was a logical step to up the comfort and sandwich my cinnamon {snickerdoodle} ice cream between soft & chewy snickerdoodle cookies.

The warm hint of cinnamon swirled in cool & creamy {brown sugar} French Vanilla Ice Cream makes a winning combo and… snickerdoodle ice cream.

Pumpkins. Squash. Caramel…Ice cream. I know ice cream may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of fall. However, for me, ice cream is a year-round comfort food and I especially love making autumn-appropriate flavors. The sweet, saltiness of this caramel sauce paired with the creamy, refreshing French vanilla ice cream speaks autumn.

One sweet bite of this beautifully-colored marionberry pie ice cream will transport you to berry patches and long, relaxing summer days. It is a refreshing treat in the heat of summer and the perfect pick-me-up on a gray winter day.

Our dear Swedish family friend recounts living as a 6-year-old with her grandparents in a small Swedish town. Her grandparents lived above the family-run konditori so she woke to the smell of Kanelbullar {Swedish Cinnamon Buns} and other pastries.
