The Best (and we mean THE BEST) Homemade Blueberry Cobbler Ice Cream

Monday, June 18, 2018 at 12:02 pm by

We decided to combine two of summer’s best desserts – cobbler and ice cream – into one mind-blowingly fantastic recipe. While I love a hot cobbler loaded with fresh berries, nothing quite says summer like enjoying an ice cream cone on a 80 degree night.  Combining the two leaves you with the best of both worlds – and we mean the BEST.

Blueberry Cobbler Ice Cream

Skip the ice cream parlor and make your own ice cream. It’s way less complicated than you’d think, especially when you have an ice cream maker at home.

A simple mixture of fresh blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, half and half, and heavy cream makes up this delicious ice cream. And the best part? You know those yummy spice cookies you sometimes get on airplanes? Yep, the Test Kitchen decided to add those to the mixture – and sprinkle even more on top.

Not to toot our own horn, but… the Test Kitchen deserves a standing ovation for this one. The combination of fresh, tangy blueberries and the spicy, crunchy cookies is reminiscent of classic cobbler flavors and will have you craving scoop after scoop. If you thought you had your favourite ice cream flavour set in stone, think again.

The bright purple ice cream disappeared at our tasting panel and we guarantee it will disappear from your bowl or cone in record time. Do yourself a favour and make this ice cream. It’s sure to become a new summer tradition.

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Ice Cream (Sandwich Milkshakes)

Tuesday, July 4, 2017 at 11:00 am by

Do you like ice cream sandwiches? What about milkshakes? We put two these two summer favourites together to make an Ice Cream Sandwich Milkshake.

Three scoops of your favourite vanilla ice cream, ½ cup of milk, 1 tablespoon of Nutella or hot fudge sauce (or both. Why not?) and one ice cream sandwich broken into small pieces goes into the drink mixer to make this over-the-top milkshake.

This shake tastes exactly like an ice cream sandwich. And to make it that much better, we garnished it with a mini ice cream sandwich (we just cut an extra ice cream sandwich into squares with a sharp knife).  There’s no wait for the ice cream truck when you can make this in your drink mixer now.
