Kitchen Sink Ice Cream

The other day, while making a batch of Kitchen Sink cookies, my friend Lynne asked if I’d tried making a Kitchen Sink Ice Cream. Challenge accepted, my friend, and THANK YOU for the suggestion!

This is fully loaded, couldn’t cram more in there, exploding with awesomeness, creamy vanilla ice cream as filled as can be with cookie pieces, toffee bits, toasted coconut, peanut butter cups, pecans, and whatever else you might possibly want to add.

Everything But the Kitchen Sink Ice Cream

Ben & Jerry’s describes their ‘everything but the kitchen sink ice cream’ as “A Collision of Chocolate & Vanilla Ice Creams mixed with Peanut Butter Cups, Fudge-Covered Toffee Pieces, White Chocolatey Chunks & Fudge-Covered Almonds”.

Oh bless you, Ben and Jerry, but I think our homemade version is much better. I mean, cookies; ours has cookies and toasted coconut, among other things!

And the beauty of making this at home is that you can make it YOURS by adding anything else you want and omitting anything that doesn’t suit your fancy. Feel like toasted almonds would make it sing? Go on and add them! Not so keen on coconut? Kick it to the curb!
