Why blue ice cream?

For some reason on Christmas day we started talking about ice cream, and I asked my 3-year-old niece what her favorite flavor of ice cream was.

Of course, ice cream is always a welcome topic, so I guess I don’t really need to wonder why we were discussing ice cream!

It turns out her favorite flavor of ice ream is blue. Yep, blue ice cream.

Making her favorite flavor

So, as the cook in the family, I decided that we needed to make her some blue ice cream.

And, as she’s 3 years old, I didn’t want to recipe to be very complicated. I wanted a no cook, not too fussy, and tasty vanilla ice cream.

So, I set about looking on Pinterest, and to my delight, I found the perfect recipe by Sumptuous Spoonfuls.

I’ve known Ann at Sumptuous Spoonfuls for many years now, and all of her recipes rock! Tasty recipes! Easy recipes! Great photography! Please do go give her a visit. You’ll be happy you did!

Have the kids help make this

My niece and I made the ice cream batch that you see in the pictures. She did most of the work for it.

I had measured out all the appropriate amounts. She poured them all together, and she stirred it all together (and I checked, it wasn’t quite all stirred, but that’s ok, the recipe is so good that the ice cream rocked anyway!). She poured the mixture into the ice cream maker!

So, this is a GREAT recipe to make with your little kiddos.

Now, I know, food coloring should be avoided. I know. I know. Please don’t leave me mean comments. Sometimes it’s fine to do little treats. They’ll be fine. It is, after all, a sometimes treat.

Ice cream bar

We had an ice cream bar for toppings to go with our blue ice cream.

We had M&Ms (plain and peanut), Mini York Peppermint patties (which were amazing in this), rainbow sprinkles, and pink sugar sprinkles.

It was tons of fun playing with and eating blue ice cream. And, we all ended up with blue tongues to prove we had eaten it!

This Blue Ice Cream is a nice vanilla flavor that’s sure to please everyone. And, the ease of not having to cook it is simply awesome!
