Cookies and Cream Pies

Sometimes you just need to have chocolate in your life.  Chocolate is said to help with heart health and stress... Lets just keep telling ourselves that.

So, this ice-cream starts off with the sinful, but oh-so-good, chocolate chip cookie pie.  I put the cookie dough in tiny ramekins which will make for the perfect individual treat for guests when you host a party.  Then using my Dessert Bullet, I made a cookies and cream ice-cream. Did you hear that?  Plop, goes a spoon full right on top. Watch the ice-cream melt with the warm cookie underneath and eat fast.
