Ice Cream

I have some friends who LOVE going out to eat ice cream. I am talking about 3 times a week. Occasionally I would go with them. Then I got to thinking, how many times would I have to skip on going out to get ice cream to justify buying a Cuisinart Ice Cream maker. Turned out to be 15 times. With the rate that my friends went to get froyo I had a new ice cream maker in just over a month. I thought I would save money by making my ice cream. Well, only sort of. Shelby got me a really cool cookbook for my birthday last year and it has some really tasty recipes in it. Last week I made a Sea Salt caramel ice cream and a pistachio gelato. Both were really tasty. 
My custard making abilities are improving as well. After my ice cream adventures were over I had 16 (yikes) egg whites in my refrigerator. 

If anyone has ideas for other ice cream flavors, or ideas on how to use egg whites let me know!

  1. YUM! Sounds like you could make angel food cake from scratch. It would probably only take 12 egg whites. I enjoyed our visit tonight. Love you lots!
