It is hot here. The end of the days have been screaming ice cream, sticky hands and smiles like I have never heard before. It is a happy sound and sight. Making ice scream is still magic to me. It is not getting old. I know you can get fancy but, who has time to be fancy when you are spending all of your free time in the pool splashing and diving for the rocket with the kids? I am sticking to my cornstarch base vanilla ice cream which is easy but, honestly really creamy and delicious. To that base I cut up some of the naked cookie dough truffles I had stashed in the freezer. It was a smart idea. I knew I was smart. Hope you enjoy this ice cream and summer as much as we are. The ice cream is gone and soon so, will be summer. Is this making anyone else sad?

Hmmmm I think the red velvet ice cream is more my style.
I've never done the cornstarch thing for ice cream before but it would make my life SO much easier! I wish I had cookie dough truffles in my freezer...
