Mixing new with traditional
Did you have a nice Thanksgiving? We did; terrific family plus outstanding food! Did you do the typical turkey with all the trimmings? We made our regular Southwestern brined turkey, Italian Dressing or Stuffing with Sausage, and Hard Italian Rolls. We did try some new dishes, Broccoli with Mushrooms and make ahead mashed potatoes with sauteed onion. Do you like experimenting with new recipes? We enjoy mixing new with traditional.
Pumpkin for Thanksgiving
Toasted Pecan Pumpkin Ice Cream was Honey’s idea. Shelley, our daughter, said she’d bring the sweets, which she did, a mouth-watering pumpkin pie dessert and an apple pie. In fact, our grandsons helped her make them. We had a lot of heavy whipping cream leftover, so the perfect solution was to make a no-churn ice cream and serve it with the other desserts.
I think there is an unwritten rule that you have to use pumpkin in a dessert at Thanksgiving. We always like to follow the rules 😉 plus we had the ingredients, so it was a matter of mixing them together. Easier than pie! No-churn ice cream is the perfect quick no-fail dessert.
Easy no-churn pumpkin ice cream for dessert
All it takes to make No-Churn Toasted Pecan Pumpkin Ice Cream is a can of pumpkin pie filling, sweetened condensed milk, pecans, heavy whipping cream, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon liqueur. Put the creamy mixture in a freezer proof container and wait several hours. Waiting! That’s the hardest part. Now, isn’t this a simple recipe?
You say you don’t like pumpkin? Well, you can substitute the pie filling with apple pie filling, cherry filling, Nutella, Strawberry, the possibilities are endless. My mind churns with easy ice cream ideas. 🙂 What’s your favorite flavor? How about a triple chocolate flavor? Or, how about a Rocky Road or a cookie dough ice cream? Let us know what ice cream flavors you’re making!
