Nutella Ice Cream

The weather has been pretty crappy here lately. First it rained all last week and then this weekend we had an ice storm and snow! 

Whhhaatt? It's April. 

Come on weatherman! Do me good!

I don't think he heard me...Yesterday after church Anthony and I wanted to make it feel like it's actually spring-time so we whipped up some Nutella Ice Cream.

I got my KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker in the mail on Friday! It was a rebate when I bought my mixer a while back. 

Workin' the system. ;)

If you have an ice cream maker it is super easy to make and it tastes delicious!

Nutella Ice Cream

2 cups heavy whipping cream

1 cup 2% milk (You could use whole milk for a richer flavor)

2 tbsp sugar

1/2 cup Nutella (We had a heaping 1/2cup...I mean heaping.)

1/2 tsp vanilla

1. Put all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until well blended. If you have a hard time blending in the Nutella go ahead and stick it in the micro for a few seconds. Confession: we used the micro.

If you use a micro you may want to refrigerate the mixture for a little while. We didn't refrigerate it after and in the end the ice cream turned out just fine. 

2. Pour the mixture into the ice cream maker and run on 2 for 30 minutes.

Mix, mix, mix.

After 30 minutes it will look like this.

The consistency is a little like soft-serve and I suggest eating right out of the mixer.

 What a happy camper!

We've got the provisions now we just need the warm weather!
