Coffee Ice Cream Recipe

hey, why not take advantage of our End of Summer Sale on our Ice Cream Recipe eBook?

This is one of my favorite ice cream recipes. You can make different flavors by using flavored instant coffee or espresso.

I love coffee, but if I have it too late in the day I stay up all night...that's what happened the first time I made this ice cream. It was late in the day and it was too good not to keep eating!!! I was up all night!

Serving Tip: To serve, place your freshly made ice cream in a coffee mug, instead of an ice cream bowl! Garnish with one or several chocolate covered coffee beans.
