Customize Your Ice Cream
You could embellish this easy homemade peanut butter ice cream. If you wanted to, that is. You don’t have to. I thought it was fantastic made just as the recipe states. It’s creamy delicious and packed with peanut flavor. But, I can see wanting to add a little crunch or something else maybe. Perhaps a few handfuls of toasted peanuts. That’d be good, for sure. And a good drizzle of chocolate syrup? That’d take it way over the top!
I use my lil Cuisinart ice cream maker for this and all the ice creams that I make at home. It keeps me in the ‘easy’ mode because it’s easy to use and easy to clean. All I have to do is make sure that I put the freezer bowl into the freezer a good day ahead so that it gets super cold.
