“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!
