Creamy Vanilla Frozen Custard

This Creamy Vanilla Frozen Custard is absolutely Heavenly!! I've been making it left and right this Summer to go with everything from Cobblers to Pizookies or just to eat on on a cone.  It's my absolute favorite Vanilla Ice Cream! So creamy with an intense Vanilla flavor.  Since I've started making this I've pretty much given up on buying it.  It's cheaper to make and I honestly like it much better.  The base is so easy to make and churning it is a breeze with an electric ice cream mixer.  

There are quite a few no-churn ice cream recipes floating around on the internet and we even have one on our blog, but guys, those recipes just don't compare in taste and texture to Frozen Custard, in my opinion.  

So basically what I'm saying is if you don't have an Ice Cream Maker now is the time to go buy one so you can experience this deliciousness! 

Creamy Vanilla Frozen Custard

Ingredients:
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup whole milk
1 TBSP Pure Vanilla Extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Dash of salt 

Directions:
In a medium size sauce pan, whisk the egg yolks and sugar together till smooth and fluffy. Add in the milk and a dash of salt then whisk until smooth. 
Over medium heat whisk the mixture frequently until it reaches a temperature of 165 degrees F. Mixture will be hot but not boiling and should coat the back of a spoon. 
Turn off the heat and stir in Vanilla Extract. Pour into a food safe container and chill for at least a few hours or until the mixture is cold. 
Remove the ice cream base from the fridge and stir in heavy whipping cream. Process in an electric ice cream maker until it is the texture of soft serve ice cream. At this point you can either eat it as is, or scoop it into a bread pan or other container and freeze for a few hours to have a scoop-able texture. 
Enjoy!

Not Yo Mama's Banana Pudding (Re-post with a picture )

Does this dessert sound familiar to you?  I originally posted it last Summer, but didn't have a picture at the time.  I'm excited to be able to post this picture now so you can see how yummy it looks!  I first had this pudding at a BBQ last Summer.  One bite and I was hooked.  This fabulous pudding sits on top of a layer of bananas and is sandwiched between two delicious cookies. Does it get any better than that?  Banana pudding didn't used to be something I craved, but it definitely is now.  It is Heavenly!  Also, it's very easy to make.  So try it out sometime.  I bet you'll become a banana pudding fan too.

Royal Icing for Sugar Cookies

While I love my Scrumptious Sugar Cookie frosting , Royal Icing is the way to go for decorated cookies that harden enough to stack and package. It definitely takes more time and patience, but the end result is so satisfying! You can make such fun cookies without having to worry about the frosting coming off.  Royal Icing can get super hard, and while this is perfect for building Gingerbread Houses, it’s not so great when you want to actually eat the cookie. Not to worry though- adding in a little corn syrup helps the icing dry firm without being overly hard.  I also like to add in my favorite butter vanilla emulsion to make the icing extra yummy, cause at the end of the day it’s not enough to just look pretty!  There are a few different ways to make Royal Icing. My favorite method is using Meringue Powder. If you can’t find this or don’t want to buy it, you can use egg whites instead. Or, if you’re in a pinch you can make some with just powdered sugar and water. You can find some recip

Brown Butter Caramel Snickerdoodles

If you try one new cookie recipe this Fall, let it be this one!! I'm not kidding when I say that this is  one of the best cookies I've ever made.  They've already received rave reviews and comments such as, "Amazing!", and "Incredible!"  These are not your average snickerdoodle, not that I have anything against the traditional ones, they are made with browned butter and extra brown sugar for a rich caramel taste.  But wait, it also has a caramel center! And of course that classic chewy texture with a cinnamon/sugar coating.  I could eat these every single day. They are SO GOOD you guys!
