My color choice for this naturally-dyed layer cake obviously reveals who I’ll be rooting for but I’ll give you Broncos fans a little hint: you can have your {blue and orange} cake and eat it, too, if you simply use carrot juice instead of spinach juice.
This one-ingredient eggnog ice cream is much quicker and healthier than a custard-based eggnog ice cream. In under 30 minutes (or the time it takes to churn the ice cream), you can have a creamy, not-too-sweet frozen treat made with low-fat eggnog.
These sparkling sugared cranberries are simple to make and can be used in so many ways: as a garnish for desserts and beverages, as gifts, and as sweet snacks, to name a few. A couple of them dropped in each champagne glass made our Christmas cranberry mimosas beautiful and festive.
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.
Mix and match moist pumpkin bread, fudgy chocolate brownies and salted caramel sauce for an assortment of decadent autumn treats.
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.
Homemade Drumsticks are simple to make, you can personalize the flavor combos, and your kids will love to help. Use a variety of quality ice cream, chocolate, and toppings to take this childhood favorite up a notch.
