I’m back with another ice cream recipe, and this one is a good one: Honey-Sweetened Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream (say that three times fast!). It basically tastes like a Reese’s cup, just not as sweet. I tend to like things that taste a little less sweet; the flavors stand out more to me, and I feel better after eating them. As an added bonus, it’s kid tested and approved.
Recipe tips: To start it is a simple recipe with only five ingredients, which I’m sure other moms of littles will appreciate! For the milk, I use Oatly Oat milk, Full-Fat, which is my favorite milk alternative. I’ve tried a bunch of milk alternatives, and this is the only one I’ve tried that rivals cow’s milk in terms of taste. You could use a different milk, but I’m not sure how it will change the taste. If you try a different type of milk in this recipe, I’d love to hear how it worked. For the peanut butter, I recommend using a peanut butter with only peanuts listed in the ingredients. A lot of peanut butters have added oils, sugars, and salt. I find that it still states great without these added ingredients and it is a little healthier.
