There are some days when I count my blessing even more than others. Like days when I get to to come up with a recipe using ice cream that was sent to me. Not just any old ice cream but
Graeter’s ice cream. It’s my absolute favorite brand of ice cream.
Graeter’s still makes their ice cream in a French Pot two gallons at a time and it’s rich and creamy and oh-so good.

Right now,
Graeter’s has some wonderful limited edition seasonal flavors like Pumpkin and Peppermint Stick.

But for this delicious treat that I concocted, I used their Salted Caramel flavor. Here’s how Graeter’s describes their Salted Caramel ice cream and I couldn’t agree more.
“Hurry up!” is never to be uttered in the presence of our brown sugar, as it slowly simmers into the known universe’s most delectable, dashed-with-salt caramel. For best results, savor unhurriedly, and often.

The Salted Caramel ice cream doesn’t really need anything else – just a bowl and a spoon. You could even skip the bowl if necessary! But I thought since it’s the holidays why not go crazy and make some little cookie tart bowls to hold the ice cream. I actually used a Peanut Butter cookie mix which made these super easy.

Once the dough was formed, I pressed small amounts into these tiny tart tins that I had buttered. I baked them according to the package directions and once they were cooled, added dollops of the wonderful ice cream.

By the way, how great are these vintage scoops shown on the Graeter's site as part of their history. They’ve been making ice cream since 1870!

The Peanut Butter Cups filled with Salted Caramel Ice cream was a huge hit in my house and I can’t wait to make more and serve them over the holidays for larger gatherings.

Yup, some days are filled with wonderful things like ice cream!
Thanks for visiting.
Oh my, salted caramel ice cream? Sounds like a dream come true! And these look absolutely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds soooooo good, and I love how you served the ice cream in those adorable little tarts! And those vintage ice cream scoops are so fun to see, especially from a still-made-in-the-USA company! :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! What a great idea! I'm thinking I should probably make these soon! :) We sometimes make cookies and then just crumble them up into a bowl of ice cream, but this is an even better idea! Pinning this for later!
