FIVE Minute Ice Cream

YES, you read that correctly. FIVE Minute Ice cream! It was delicious and scored a 5 out of 5. We used frozen pineapple to make ours, but I think we will try strawberry or blackberries next. We cut up the pineapple this morning and froze it. We wanted to try it with fresh fruit. The key is the fruit has to be frozen so when you mix it all together the cream turns to ice cream! It does work, but you do need a food processor or blender! The picture posted is from the website. I forgot to take one tonight, but when we make it again I will post a picture! Here is a link to the recipe! Five Minute Ice Cream

Ingredients

• 1 (10 ounces) package frozen slice strawberries (you can use any fruit, just weigh it)
• 1/2 cup of sugar
• 2/3 cup of heavy cream

Directions

Combine frozen fruit and sugar in a food processor or blender. Process until the fruit is roughly chopped. With the processor running, slowly pour in the heavy cream until fully incorporated. Save immediately, or freeze for up to one week.

Approximately four servings.

Blueberry Cream Muffins

I decided to put a breakfast recipe in for today. My wife and I really like blueberry muffins as do both boys. I had been purchasing blueberry muffin cups from Schwans, but they stopped selling them. My honey then decided that we should look for our own recipe and this is what she found--Blueberry Cream Muffins at AllRecipes.com Link to Blueberry Cream Muffins

This recipe makes approximately 36 muffins. When we first looked at all of the ingredients, we knew we didn't need to make the whole recipe, so we made 1/4 of it. We were able to make nine medium size muffins. The actual recipe says that the servings is 24, but when we made the entire recipe we got 36. We really liked these muffins, but we didn't always like having to make them, so we made a full batch one Sunday afternoon and FROZE our own muffins. We have three muffin pans so we filled them all up and stuck them in the big freezer outside in the garage. We did use muffin cups. I have to say, they taste just as good after being frozen. We had some this morning. They also cooked in about 20 minutes after being frozen, after sitting out while the oven preheated!  We also tend to add more blueberries than the recipe calls for, because we like blueberries. When we can't find fresh blueberries we use frozen one!! We rate them a 5 out of 5! Enjoy!

2. In a large bowl beat eggs, gradually add sugar while beating. Continue beating while slowly pouring in oil. Stir in vanilla, in a separate bowl, stir together flour, salt and baking soda. (I start with the eggs, sugar and oil and then just mix in the other things. They taste awesome).
