The 30 best ice cream reccipes that don’t require an ice cream maker!
30 of the best ice cream recipes without a machine!  Love how easy these recipes are

In case it isn’t obvious, I love ice cream.  Like, if I had to replace one meal a day with ice cream for the rest of my life, I think I could do that.  Besides, as I’ve discovered this summer, there are so many fun flavors and variations that I really don’t think I could ever get bored.  Since this week is my birthday it only seemed fair to have a couple of posts highlighting my favorite food group (like I said, meal replacement).  So without further ado, take a look at these amazing recipes.  There is so much creativity listed below and the best part?  No fancy machine required!

Current Cravings

I was so excited for things to calm down so that I could spend a couple of weeks developing fun recipes to share with you and use for the Cookie of the Month Club.  Plans aside, life gets in the way and I was completely wiped out by the flu for the first week or so of January.  Things are starting to pick back up again with Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day around the corner, but hopefully I’ll be able to steal a few minutes for kitchen experiments.

Since I don’t have any new recipes to share, I thought I’d share some links for sweets I’ve been craving lately.

Carrot Cake Ice Cream from Eats Well With Others. Yes, I realize it is cold out but it is never too cold for ice cream.

Dessert for Breakfast or Breakfast for Dessert

I might be an oatmeal girl most days of the week, but pancakes and other sweet treats will always have a special place in my heart.  Often, when we go on vacation, we will try to balance breakfast with an egg white omelet and a side of donuts, pancakes or waffles.  We all deserve to start the day with a treat every now and again!  Inspired by my love of all things dessert, I even started a Pinterest board for breakfasts that taste like dessert.  Since I’m sure I’m not alone, I’ve rounded up almost 30 sweet treats for breakfast and included them below:
