Caramel Gingerbread Ice Cream Cake

 Do you feel that sense of togetherness this time of year?  When you think about family moments, do they center around food?  I know a lot of my family memories are jogged by certain triggers, many of them food.  Whether it be a smell, a flavor, a moment shared with my kids that is similar to one I had as a child- they are all so great & they all come flooding back & give me smiles.

 I love creating memories like that with my kids.  I want them to remember the times we spend in the kitchen.  I want them to taste something when they are adults & remember something we did together & smile about it.   One thing I am trying to do is bring back old family recipes & combine them with things I love to make new family favorites & great memories for the kids.

If you ask my kids what foods I love- they would definitely say Ice Cream.  Not just any Ice Cream though.  When I am looking for Ice Cream I want something that tastes amazing, wholesome ingredients, variety of flavors, creamy texture & makes me feel special.  I think that’s part of the experience.  So I decided to take one of my favorite cookie recipes & combine it with one of my favorite Dreyer’s Slow Churned flavors – Caramel Delight & make a treat that we will be making for years to come.

This was a HUGE HIT!  We will be making this for many holidays here in the near future.  I prefer the Dreyer’s Slow Churned for this not only because of it’s creamy texture but because it’s Slow Churned it makes it HALF THE FAT and 1/3 FEWER CALORIES than regular ice cream.

Don’t miss the seasonal flavors Pumpkin & Peppermint this time of year.
