I have been loving the Nutella lately, and I really wanted to make so Nutella ice cream. I searched for some recipes online, and actually found a great recipe on a blog I’m already familiar with. This was a simple ice cream with no egg yolks, and basically just required a blender. It was completely [...]

There is a lot of panic in the food world over the pumpkin shortage this year. I was not having any luck finding pumpkin where we live (and we live in a decent size city), but when I went to our college town about 45 minutes away, I decided to check out the grocery stores [...]

David’s grandparents have an amazing garden, and my favorite part is the blueberry bushes. Last year when we visited them, we picked a ton of blueberries on night and I used some of them in this blueberry pie. We won’t be able to visit this year at their house, but we did see them recently, [...]

This ice cream was actually made out of necessity. After making the chocolate covered marshmallow cookies for the Daring Baker July challenge, I wanted to find a use for them. I didn’t want to eat them like a normal person, so I searched for a new way to enjoy them. I decided that they would [...]

I love raspberries, but I hate that they are so expensive. I saw them at Cosco recently for a good price, so I picked some up. I made cupcakes with half, but was left with trying to decide what to do with the rest of them. I didn’t have enough for sorbet, but I have [...]

The best part about food during the summer is the abundance of fresh fruit. I try to eat as much of it as I can during the months it is in season. One of my favorite fruits is pineapple. The canned variety just isn’t as good as fresh, and I’ve found that it’s worth it [...]

This ice cream intrigued me when I first looked through The Perfect Scoop. I’ve never had anything like it before, but the combination sounded delicious. This was a custard-based ice cream, but it included the additional steps of cooking raisins and making the oatmeal praline. The ice cream custard base had a lot of cinnamon [...]
