You scream, I scream, we all scream for..
yep, ICE CREAM.
Let’s be honest, it’s summer, and even if you’re not down here in SW FL where it is 95 degrees and HUMID..it’s the best time of year to treat yourself to some.
I have to admit.. ice cream and frozen yogurt is my all time weakness.
Why I have a TON of recipes already on here from my Superman Froyo, Pumpkin Froyo, Double Chocolate Chip Ice Cream, oh and COOKIE DOUGH flavor too.
Anyways..One thing I’ve realized whenever I get ice cream out..I always pick something with “chips” or “chunks” in it.
I just am a lover of all things chocolate. Expresso Chip, Chocolate Chip..Mint Chocolate CHIP…
So I thought, why not make a delicious homemade, healthier version of one of my favorites..Mint Chocolate Chip!
And of course..with Quest bars lying around of their new flavor, Mint Chocolate Chip.. I had to add those to the mix instead of real chocolate chips.
Oh my, it was a great last minute idea.
As for photographing ice cream in 95 degree whether..
Not the best idea.
But a girl has to do what a girl has to do!
Until next time,
What is YOUR favorite ice cream flavor?!
What if that one food that is a weakness to you?!
