MISTY'S FAVORITE 5 MINUTE ICE-CREAM RECIPES (1 original, 1 lite)

 First of all, if you want an ice-cream that freezes as hard as a rock, THESE RECIPES ARE NOT FOR YOU. But if you want an ice-cream that tastes delicious and even after frozen scoops out like soft-serve ice-cream every time, then these are right up your alley.  You'll never want to buy ice-cream again.

 If you do not have an ice-cream maker, may I suggest you start shopping for a good deal TODAY!  We have a Cuisinart and LOVE it.

RECIPE #1:

MISTY'S LITE VANILLA-HONEY ICE-CREAM:  

lite and tasty with no refined sugar and just enough cream to make it melt in your mouth! 

Ingredients

  • 3 cups coconut milk (I like to use the SILK brand, vanilla flavored)
  • 1cup ORGANIC HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM (Costco's is AWESOME and cheap)...
  • 3/4 cup organic honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  •  2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract  (NOT imitation)
Mix it up w/ a hand mixer to combine all ingredients.  Pour into ice-cream maker.
Press "on" button and stay busy for about 20 minutes or until ice-cream is "set".  Your number 1 goal is to refrain from sticking your finger in the churning bowl every time you walk by.

YUM!
Top w/ my favorite 60 second magic shell recipe (2 ingredients)!!!

VARIATIONS:

This is the "base"...have fun and play around w/ this by adding fresh fruit, chopped chocolate, cinnamon, peppermint extract,...You can also use even less cream if you want to lighten this up even more.  (Try using 3 1/2 cups of coconut milk and only 1/2 cup of cream.) 

 

RECIPE #2:

HUBBY'S & KIDS FAVORITE VANILLA ICE-CREAM

Ingredients

  • 2 cups milk (we like using our raw milk)
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup organic sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  •   2teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix it up w/ a hand mixer to combine all ingredients. (mix until the sugar is dissolved as much as possible) Pour into ice-cream maker and churn for about 20 minutes or until ice-cream is "set"...it will resemble soft serve.

**FYI:  my hubby has been known to change the ratio of Milk:Cream.  His favorite is 3 CUPS OF CREAM and 1 cup of MILK.  It's ok to experiment w/ different ratio's as long as you end up w/ 4 cups.

VARIATIONS:
