Skinny German Chocolate Ice Cream

Made with dark chocolate almond milk, this no-churn Skinny German Chocolate Ice Cream is creamy & delicious and easy on the waistline... 

Here is a little known fact that you may not know about me...

I am lactose intolerant.
The thought of drinking a glass of milk makes my stomach turn.
But I do love my dairy.  Obviously. ;)
But if I overdo it on the cheese or ice cream, I do pay for it.

Lately, I have been embracing the many benefits of almond milk.  Most often you will find me using it almost daily in my green smoothies.  But thanks to the new line of Silk products, I have been branching out beyond the smoothie, folks.
Even whipping up some almost dairy-free ice cream with my newest Silk obsession- Silk Dark Chocolate Almondmilk. :)

Hot Cocoa Ice Cream

This Hot Cocoa Ice Cream is creamy & sweet with just the right amount of chocolaty-ness- pretty much the perfect mug of hot cocoa only in a frozen, perfect for summertime form...

I really wasn't sure if I was going to participate in this month's Behind the Curtain Dessert Challenge.  I had not looked at the ingredients yet for January and wasn't sure I had it in me to concoct a new recipe over the holidays anyways.

But on a whim (& because I was curious), I clicked on over to Lady Behind the Curtain's site just to take a peek.

And boom!

It was pretty much fate, folks.

Hot cocoa and marshmallows are January's ingredients.

And it just so happened that the week before I had the idea to make a homemade ice cream using... you guessed it!  Hot cocoa and marshmallows! 

Biscoff Pretzel Crunch Ice Cream

You are going to love the sweet & salty combo in this creamy, no ice cream maker required Biscoff Pretzel Crunch Ice Cream...

I have been holding out on you guys for a couple of months now.  

My sincere apologies.

Because it really isn't fair that I should have kept this recipe to myself for so many weeks.

You all deserve this ice cream recipe.

Maybe even need it. ;)

This recipe is actually the one and only time I "worked" while I was away on vacation at the beach.  I decided to make a homemade ice cream one day for the family, and it turned out so wonderful and delicious that I knew it would most definitely be making it to one of my blog posts.
