We All Scream for…
Yes, it's not a trick question. The answer is ice cream.
Everybody loves ice cream. I especially love homemade ice cream. I got the book “Just Making Ice Cream” as part of the Ultimate Homemaking Ebook Bundle that was on sale last month.
Why I did not read this sooner I don't know.
This book is absolutely amazing.
I never knew there were several ways to make ice cream even if you don't have an ice cream maker!
I don't know how anybody has the patience to figure out from scratch 50 different recipes for homemade ice cream, sherbet, and sorbet. And all the recipes use healthy ingredients! That means I can eat as much as I want, right?
With flavors like Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough, Salty Caramel Pecan, And Almond Joye, I just don't know where I'm going to start!
Besides recipes, the book is full of tips and advice on choosing the best ice cream maker, no-maker methods, and troubleshooting advice to make ice-cream making headache free.
It normally sells for $12, which I think is well worth it considering the quality of the book and how much time the author had to have put into figuring out these recipes.
It's part of the Bundle of the Week sale this week, though, where you can get 5 summer-themed books for $7.40.
Here's the whole lineup:
