Ice Cream Dessert

Talk about SWEET!

This is what my Grandma served for dessert a couple of Sunday's ago.

SOOOO Good!

I apologize that I do not have step by step instruction pictures!

Just follow me on this one!

1 box *Fat Boy* ice cream sandwiches

*any kind of ice cream sandwiches would work, I'm sure.

8 oz cool whip

1/4 cup caramel or butterscotch syrup

(which ever you like, or have on hand)

1/2 can sweetened condensed milk

Skor or Heath Candy Bar, crushed

Chocolate Syrup

Mix condensed milk and flavored syrup.

In a 9 x 13 pan, lightly coat the bottom of the pan with the syrup mixture.

(this will prevent the sandwiches from sticking to the pan)

Arrange the ice cream sandwiches in the pan to a tight fit!

Pour the rest of the syrup mixture over the top of the sandwiches.

Spread softened cool whip over syrup mixture.

Place in deep freeze for 3-4 hours before serving.

Top with crushed candy & drizzle with chocolate syrup.

Peach Cobbler

Yummy Peach Cobbler!

I got this recipe from my favorite website & channel....Food Network!

Man, I love that channel! I could watch those shows all day!

8 tbsp. butter

Place butter in a 9 x 13 pan. Put pan in 350* oven to melt the butter.
4 cups peaches, peeled and sliced

1/2 cup water

1 cup sugar

Combine peaches, water and sugar and mix well. Bring to a boil and simmer 10 minutes.

Prepare batter.

1 cup sugar

1 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 cups milk

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. vanilla

1 tsp. cinnamon (if desired)

I recommend it, because it was GOOD!

Once butter has melted in pan, pour batter in pan.

Do not stir.

Place peaches in pan, on top of batter.

DO NOT STIR.

Spoon in peach juice.

Sprinkle cinnamon on top if desired.

Bake in oven for 35-45 minutes.

Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

Delicious!

Ice Cream

After being extremly disappointed in myself for thinking I could accept FALL already,

I decided to fight back.

I kinda forgot all about peaches.

Peaches are the last hope for summer.

There is nothing better than peaches and cream...and a little bit of sugar!

Well, this recipe isn't for peaches and cream...and a little bit of sugar...

but ironically it calls for...

peaches and cream and a little bit of sugar!

Of course, it is very versatile,

meaning you can change out the fruit

for whatever is in season.

And right now, it is the peach.

The fruit that has waited all summer long to be enjoyed!

1 quart cream (or half and half)

3 cups sugar

juice of 3 lemons

2 cups peaches

milk to finish

In ice cream maker bowl,

combine cream and sugar and stir until sugar is dissolved.

Add lemon juice.

With the fruit,

if you want to have larger chunks of fruit in your ice cream,

I would suggest cutting them into very small pieces.

If you do not want chunks of fruit in your ice cream,

cut up the fruit and mash with a potato masher or pastry cutter.

Add fruit and then add milk until you reach the fill line of your bowl.

The secret to getting your ice cream to freeze fast is salt.

Make sure that you are adding salt inbetween the layers of ice.

Also, pour some water over the ice and salt in your ice cream maker

to make the ice a little colder.

(thanks to Uncle Kelly for the ice tip!)

Make sure that you are checking the ice levels often.

Tonight, mine only took 30 minutes

when it has taken between 40-50 minutes to freeze.

Enjoy and savor the last days of summer...while they last!
