Is there anything more summer than ice cream? I don’t think so! That’s not to say that I save ice cream for summer – I have been known to eat it all year long 😉 But there is something especially good about ice cream on a warm summers day. Am I right?

Making ice cream is really quite easy and this recipe turned out amazing! So much so that this batch barely lasted 24 hours!
