This Cookies n' Cream Ice Cream recipe is about to be your favorite!
I scream…you scream…we ALL will be screaming for this ice cream! That’s right, a cookies n’ cream ice cream recipe that is gluten free and dairy free. A dream come true for me. Cookies n’ cream ice cream was always my favorite flavor of ice cream as a kid. I love the abundance of chunks of chocolate sandwich cookies that get soft from the vanilla ice cream. Yum to the max!
I made this special treat to celebrate back-to-school last week. Every celebration is better with ice cream. My kids thought I was the coolest mom on the block when I served it to them in a gluten free ice cream cone. This ice cream is dangerous, like for real. It is so, so, so creamy and tastes just like the original. I’ve found my new favorite. Cookies n’ cream ice cream…get in my belly!
