Christmas Ice Cream - A Special Homemade Treat
Christmas, for many people, is a time of celebration, a holiday and a
chance to take time out with family and friends. Getting together over the
Christmas holiday season usually involves eating – either entertaining at
home or being invited out to someone else’s home for dinner. So those of
us preparing meals over the holiday are always keen to find good Christmas
recipes. Ice cream is an ideal dessert to serve because of its universal
popularity with adults and children alike.
So what kind of ice cream recipe
is good to offer at Christmas?
Well, for me Christmas has always been synonomous
with winter and the need for warming and comforting food. So my favorite
Christmas ice cream recipes are either made with ingredients associated with
winter time and Christmas or made with luxuriant, rich and self-indulgent
ingredients.
Here are some of my favorite recipes for homemade ice cream this time of year:
Christmas Pudding Ice Cream
Honey Cinammon, Cloves
Stem Ginger Flavor
Rich White Chocolate
Including a few alcoholic ones ....
Egg Nog
Coffee, Rum & Walnut
White Wine Sorbet
Mulled Wine Sorbet
Sloe Gin Sorbet
Thinking of buying an ice cream maker or ice cream recipe books?
There are some great value for money ice cream theme gifts available online via Amazon.
