According to the calendar, the first official day of Summer is this week. But we’ve had Summer temperatures for a month already…which means it was time to pull out our favorite Kitchen appliance (well, besides the Keurig anyway)…the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker! The kids chose mint chocolate chip for this season’s first batch, and it was delish! (I use the past-tense, because it was gone in a day) #oink
* Serve with fresh mint and a shortbread cookie if you want to make a good impression.
Tip: Add a few drops of food color if you prefer your mint ice cream to be green.
I’m not getting paid to say this, but the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker is the gadget you never knew you needed…until you have it, and then you wonder how you lived so long without one! Seriously, check out how many near-perfect reviews it has! The recipes are so simple, and you can have sorbets and ice creams ready in no time. What is your favorite hot-weather treat?
Ooooo, I'm so glad you have all these recipes. We have the same ice cream maker and we NEVER use it. This needs to change. Thanks for the inspirtaion! xo
Yum! One of my favorite kinds of ice cream! BTW…just read your little comment below about disabling anonymous comments. Cracking up right now! Can't wait to see your hilarious and beautiful self in two weeks!
My kiddos love mint chocolate chip ice cream! I totally need to make this!!
Mint Chocolate chip is my favorite! I don't have an ice cream maker, but I just might have to buy one now! Your other recipes look fabulous as well 🙂
I love that you made your own ice cream!!! But I think the hubs would kill me if I brought home one more kitchen gadget!
Yum!! We just got this ice cream maker as a wedding shower gift. I'm going to have to give this a try! 🙂
Oh my gosh! I could really go for some mint chip right now! It looks delicious!
