“Sweet days of summer, the jasmine’s in bloom… July is dressed up and playing her tune…” ~Seals & Crofts
Ahhhh, sweet days of summer made even sweeter by this Honey Vanilla & Butterfinger Crunch Ice Cream. Best part? There’s no machine involved in the making of this sweet treat.
Hey, were you guys aware that President Reagan designated July as National Ice Cream Month? Yep, back in 1984 it became law that every US citizen is required to eat ice cream every day during the month of July. Wait. That doesn’t sound right. Or maybe it does. It’s a free country…I say we perceive the President’s proclamation any way we see fit.
Okay – I have a confession to make. I have never really loved ice cream.
Until now!!!
No-churn has made a believer out of me. I am not kidding. This ice cream is the creamiest creamy cream I’ve ever had. And the fact that I can decide the flavors, textures and even colors is a very exciting concept to me. It’s so real. So satisfying. So decadent. So homemade. You know what I mean by that. Is there anything better than homemade anything? Nope. You know it. I know it. Let’s all take this leap together. So, whether you’re an ice cream lover, liker, or on the fencer – please do yourself the favor of making this. It will change your life. Okay – that might be pushing it – but, it will certainly change your life for the few hours that you’re waiting for it to freeze, cue Carly Simon’s Anticipation, and the time that it takes for you to enjoy it.
And I recommend that you take your time enjoying it. This is one of those treats you want to be aware of with every bite…
The fact that we can make this without an ice cream maker also means that we can make it as often as we’d like with very little mess.
It’s just a matter of whipping up some heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk with other fun ingredients like vanilla, honey and Butterfinger bars, and then freezing.
Guys, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful relationship…
This is gonna be fun!
Buon Appetito!

Oh my goodness, Annie! This no churn ice-cream looks so gorgeous, creamy and delicious! Awesome flavors too! 🙂
I think the texture is the thing that struck me first! Everything else was the frosting on the cake! Thanks, dear!
Love this!!!
Thanks, Amanda!
Well I ADORE ice cream and am adding this to my summer must-make list! Honey vanilla anything is something I obviously want to be eating…and the butterfinger crunch is just an added bonus.
That is awesome!! Enjoy, my friend!
I love all of those different textures going in this! I Love the fact that it’s no churn; cuz’ sometimes I just don’t want to pull out the ole’ ice cream machine 😉 I love how delicious and creamy it looks! YUM!
Sometimes, you just have to go no-churn! And this was one of those times! Thanks, Kennedy!
Annie, I cant handle this deliciousness. Well I CAN. But i cant. U understand? If I’m not making sense it’s because I’m utterly speachless over this NO CHURN ice cream’s dreaminess. Like I said. I cant. No words. Just hand me a vat and let me go to town on this stuff. Honey AND butterfingers?¿?¿ Giiiiiirrrrlllll. I NEED!!!!!!!! Serious drooling…. ♡ xoxo.
Hahah! I do understand. Completely! But one more vat couldn’t hurt! Thanks, my friend!
Okay, actually, I”m with you, I don’t really like ice cream. HOWEVER, I get inordinately excited about fun and delicious new flavors, especialllly when they have mix ins. I always feel ice cream is too watery (I much prefer gelato), but this looks creamy and packed with goodies 🙂
Oh yes…gelato is in a class of its own! I couldn’t agree more! Thanks, my friend! This is a yummy one!
Whaaaaa??? No ice cream for you until now? Not even Gelato?!? Seals & Crofts would be shocked! lol…. Yesss… no chrun. So exciting you’ve discovered it now and you can make us drool worthy recipes like this one! OMG – do you know how long it’s been since I had a butterfinger?? Whaaa?? And then you put honey on it! Good grief, Annie! Somehow, among all the ice cream and popsicles in my freezer, I’ll have to find room! That shot of the honey… OMGeeee!! Just beautiful my dear… Thank you for this and have a beautiful weekend!
I know, I know! I’ve always liked it well enough but when given the choice between ice cream or chips… Chips win everytime! Truly, until now! Haha! Thanks so much, friend!! Enjoy!
That ice cream looks SO delicious, Annie! Such a perfect summer treat!! Pinned 🙂
Thank you, Christina!!
Did anyone say ice cream? Honey and butterfinger ice cream? Count me on, please! That looks goooood!
Done! Thanks, Ben!
I totally support National Ice Cream Day and having some every single day of July! Thank you President Reagan! And thank you Annie for no churn and butterfingers in here!
Hahah! Yes – thank you President Reagan! He knew what he was doing!! Thanks, Rachelle! 🙂
I don’t have an ice-cream maker and I always see other people post great ice-cream recipes and I feel like I’m missing out somehow – but not anymore thanks to you. Definitely trying this next week – we’re in for a bit of a heat waver and honey vanilla butterfinger ice-cream sounds perfect!! Thanks for a great recipe, Annie.
Yesss! That is happiness! This will definitely hit the spot, my friend! Thank you, Geraldine!
This seriously looks like the best ice cream ever! This is so nostalgic for me because we used to always eat butterfinger milkshakes growing up. I have to make this!
Awhh! I love that! You know what? Butterfingers are nostalgic for me too! Not in a milkshake – though that sounds incredible! Just the bar…every weekend when we visited our grandparents, we would hit up the little corner store and this was the candy (amongst others) that I treated myself to! Thanks, Annie! Enjoy!
I am definitely craving for a big bowl of this ice cream. The flavors sound amazing. I am the biggest ice cream fan and could seriously have it all year long. Love that this is no-churn! So easy and delicious!
I’m a little worried about how easy this is…the flavor possibilities are endless! Thanks, Kelly! Have a great weekend! 🙂
This looks beautiful and quite tasty with all those fixings in there. I have a passion fruit no churn post coming up myself. Good minds think alike. Enjoy this Summer Annie!
Ooooo – that sounds amazing! I’ll be watching for that! Thank you so much, Kevin! We’re finally enjoying a sunny 80 degree day, today! 🙂
I have never made my own ice cream, but I am going to have to start with this recipe. It looks delicious!!
Awwhhh! That is awesome! Have fun, my friend! Thank you! 🙂
No churn ice creams are the best! love the flavors in here Annie! But wow you never loved ice creams? like HOW! :/
This is awesome! I could take it or leave it…incredible, huh?? Thanks, friend!
Looks awesome Annie! I was never a big fan of ice cream until recently! Pinning to try it!
Thanks, Mira! And thanks for the pin! 🙂
Would you believe I’ve never made ice cream, and I even own an ice cream maker?! It’s been on my bucket list, and now you’ve inspired me to make it happen soon. This sounds so easy, and I can just imagine how much better it is than anything store-bought. Thanks for sharing!
I do believe it..as this was my first time making it, too! And like you – we’ve had a maker sitting in our storage room for far too long! So glad I could inspire you! If you make it, I’d love to know what you think! Have a beautiful weekend, Andrea!
OMG this ice cream is so delicious!! And its no churn.. can it get any more better.. Love the flavours.. 🙂
Thank you so much, Arpita! I agree…it doesn’t get any better than this! 🙂
Isn’t no-churn ice cream the best? I love the sound of this, Annie! Honey and butterfingers sound so delicious together. I don’t think I could be trusted around this ice cream!
It’s true…I can’t be alone with it, either! 🙂
