After the light and fluffy Cherry Poke Cake, that may I just say now disappear quicker than any cake I’ve ever made (maybe with the exception of my Pineapple Coconut Cake), I was left with 2 cups of cherries to use up quickly. As always in such situation, I quickly decided to make my favorite and trusted crumb bars.

The two-ingredient ice cream recipe is rocking the web right now. And rightly so! The fact that you can whip cream and stir in sweetened condensed milk to it is already a great idea in my book. But freezing it into ice cream that is scoop-able, absolutely delicious and does not require a machine for churning – now, that’s right down genius.

You may remember my Whipped Milk Ice Cream recipe from two years ago. Last year, I made a few variations of it and absolutely loved all of them. This year, I am giving the cream and condensed milk combo a try! I’ve been experimenting with this ice cream base for the past two weeks and let me just say, you would not have a problem finding ice cream in our freezer these days. Actually, I am short on containers because I keep making new flavors!  [Read more…] about Chocolate Cherry Ice Cream
