Looks great – I love all the sprinkles! 🙂
I don’t think I’ve ever made ice cream with coconut milk. I’ll have to remember to try this next time I want to make ice cream! which is often, but I already have three flavors in my freezer right now haha.

Wow three flavors in there at once! You should definitely try using coconut milk. It’s very creamy.
i really need to get my ice cream maker base in the freezer 🙂 yum!

Mine goes right back in the freezer once it gets washed so it’s always at the ready!
I never thought to make ice cream with coconut milk! What an awesome idea!

It’s pretty much the only way I make ice cream. SO GOOD.
Yummy! What delicious looking ice cream!! I want a bowl and it’s only 6am!

Ice cream is an acceptable breakfast food 😉
vanilla Beans Are In The Directions But Not The Ingredients…Should They Be Included?

Sorry about that. There are no vanilla beans in this ice cream. I have fixed the recipe instructions to reflect that.
fun way to use up leftovers 🙂
This recipe is great! The ice cream looks absolutely delicious 🙂
So excited to try this with coconut milk! It looks super yummy! Pinning! 🙂

Hope you enjoy it!
What a fun combo! Now, I need to decide whether to make your sugar cookie or your snickerdoodle ice cream first!
beantownbaker — June 24th, 2013 @ 3:47 pm
Oh – that’s a tough call! They’re both good.
sounds delicious!
I love sugar cookies and putting them in ice cream was a great idea so i just had to include it in my ice cream round up. Happy Fourth of July!
