Burnt Caramel Ice Cream

by Shoshana on February 10, 2010 · 8 comments

As I look out the window and see more than 6 inches of snow and know that the brunt of the storm is yet to come might seem more appropriate to post about something like hot chocolate. Or warm rice pudding. But I love ice cream in any weather. I’ve even been known to eat [...]

Peppermint Ice Cream

by Shoshana on December 10, 2009 · 2 comments

One of my favorite holiday treats is peppermint ice cream. Okay, I admit that it might be one of my favorite treats year round, but there is something about the limited edition peppermint ice cream appearing on the supermarket shelves that makes it feel like the holidays. The cooling taste of peppermint in a creamy [...]

Mexican Chocolate Ice Cream

by Shoshana on November 4, 2009 · 10 comments

Sometimes great recipes come about by accident. I was experimenting with making cinnamon ice cream using a mimiccreme base and the custard turned out tasting very egg-y with almost no cinnamon flavor. Never one to throw out food that could be salvaged I threw in pinch of this and a few ounces of that.  The [...]

For my birthday a few weeks ago my wonderful husband got me a new ice cream maker. And not just any ice cream maker. This one has a built in compressor so I can turn it and make ice cream any time I want without having to have freezer space for the canister at all [...]

Vanilla ice cream

by Shoshana on July 28, 2009 · 1 comment

Over the past year I have had quite a bit of success making all different parve ice creams, but the basic flavor that has eluded me is plain old vanilla. Because vanilla is a much more delicate flavor than say chocolate or peanut butter the flavor of the base ingredients come through more strongly which [...]

Blackberry Parfait

For some reason I always crave ice cream on Passover. Not bread, not muffins, not pasta but a big ice cream sundae like the one in the picture. It is strange, because there is no inherent reason ice cream cannot be kosher for Passover,  but I have yet to find a kosher for Passover ice [...]

Chick-o-Stick Ice Cream

by Shoshana on September 5, 2008 · 0 comments

Last year, while perusing the retro candy section at Dylan’s Candy Bar, my husband stumbled upon his favorite childhood candy. The Chick-o-Stick.  As I nostalgically looked at the wax bottles filled with sweet colored liquid, the wax lips, and the candy buttons on the paper ribbon, resisting buying them because I knew they would only disappoint, he confidently [...]

Chocolate Peppermint Ice Cream

by Shoshana on August 27, 2008 · 1 comment

Not wanting to give up on a product with such great potential (and lack of strange artificial ingredients and trans fats) I decided to attempt Mimiccreme ice cream again, this time using stronger flavors. Over shabbos I had reread all of The Perfect Scoop by David Lebovitz and had been intrigued by what he calls “the girl [...]
