i scream, you scream. . .

My parents gave us the coolest gift last week.

(Cool in more ways than one!)

cuisinart-ice-cream-maker

It's a Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker!  (in red to match my kitchen!)

We've been making a different flavor of ice cream every day--it's literally that easy, takes about 5 minutes to set up and mix up the ingredients, then it mixes for about 25, you pop it in the freezer overnight and voila!  Ice cream.  :)

'Course, I haven't eaten any of it (eternal dieter, here) but the boys and Dan and loving it and yes, I have snuck a taste every now and then.

Here's some of our yummies, strawberry, chocolate chip, caramel, and cookies n' cream <--that's the best, seriously, ya'll!

So. . . anyone wanna come over?  I have the snacks!  :)

I definitely need to come visit! I also need a red ice cream maker to match my red Kitchenaid.

I have it too. You have made some cool flavors... Our fav is cookies and cream too. I reduce the sugar a little cause it seems a little too sweet for me. I even used honey in the plain vanilla a couple of times. Make a batch of brownies and throw those in one time instead of the cookies, delish!

I am not a big ice cream person but that would be fun to make for the kids and hubby!Wonder if it would make Sorbet? Now, that I like! Sounds like fun!
