Celebrating our 100th post!!

If I start recollecting all the wonderful blog related incidents in the last two years then I can pretty much talk for the next two days and write about 100 pages. I am not going to dive too much into all that and just say that the blog has helped me grow as a person. It has always been a safety valve which allows me to let go of a week’s worth of stress. Last but not the least has been the role wifey dear continues to play in the blog. All I can say is the blog would never have come to fruition without you backing me up.

100 Recipes to talk about

But this is a time for celebration Y’all. Especially for wifey and I and we are going to make full use of it. I don’t know whether I mentioned it or not but I seem to have a big-time sweet tooth. Luckily for me wifey dear unabashedly shares my love of desserts. That doesn’t mean she doesn’t yell at me for buying too many cookies (LAUGHS!!!). But there is one thing that we can’t get enough off. Y’all can almost say that we are addicted to it (CHUCKLES!!). We can eat it almost till our stomachs can’t take it anymore. There are no prizes for guessing what it is.

We all scream Ice Cream

Yes, people I am indeed talking about ice cream. My love for ice cream began in my childhood because of a completely unexpected occurrence. My mom learned to make some of the most amazing ice cream I have ever tasted right at home. She got so good at it that the only ice cream I ever wanted and ate was the one she made. She did all this about 20 something years ago without the use of an ice cream maker.

How to make Ice cream without Ice Cream Maker

So what better way to celebrate this milestone than with my favorite childhood indulgence i.e. ice cream. The flavor was going to be an absolute no-brainer!!! The ice cream was simply going to have a lot of chocolate in it. So after the ice cream mix was dissolved in a mixture of milk and heavy cream I let it freeze overnight. The next day I broke it into chunks and used an electric beater to mix it till I got a smooth and creamy consistency.

Now the only question was how much chocolate I was going to add to it and in how many different forms? The first thing that went in was a heaping helping of Hershey’s chocolate syrup. But that was never going to be enough. So in went a whole bunch of brownie pieces. Now I had chocolate ice cream with soft brownie pieces which means a little crunch was needed to balance things out. That was my cue to add in more chocolate in the form of chocolate cookies.

Finally, wifey dear had enough of my craziness and practically ordered me to add sliced almonds to cut through all the chocolatiness (Don’t know if that’s even a word…. LAUGHS!!!). At this point, even I thought I had added a lot (IMAGINE THAT… CHUCKLESS!!!) of chocolate so the mixture went in the freezer and my wait as well as the anxiousness to eat ice cream began (LAUGHSS!!!).

I am not going to say too much because one look at the pictures of this utterly decadent Chocolate Brownie Ice Cream is going to be enough to make y’all DROOL…..

How Long Does it Take?

Prepping takes just 10 minutes. Freezing takes time. I keep it overnight for 2 days.

Once the mixture is ready, pour it in a tin container or an air tight container and freeze it overnight. The next day break the frozen mixture into large chunks. Then beat it with a hand blender until smooth and freeze it again overnight

Ice Cream Flavor Ideas

Once the ice cream mix, whole milk and whipping cream is mixed. There are various flavor combos you could try as per your choice. Some of my favorites are:

Cookies ‘N Cream ice-cream (recipe link)
Peanut butter, Nutella
Oreos, nuts
Fresh strawberry, peaches, banana
Mint, chocolate chips.
