No Churn Pumpkin Cookie Butter Ice Cream

IT’S FINALLY FALL IN OHIO!!!! And I’m just a little bit excited. (Can you tell?) I’ve been anxiously awaiting the arrival of fall since…well…last fall. And now that it’s finally here, I’m not wasting any time bringing the FULL ON FALL MADNESS in my household. Boots are out, pumpkin spice is on deck, and I’m…

Roasted Sweet Corn and Blueberry Ice Cream

You guys. I’ve been trying really hard. Like, really really hard. (I have!) But I just can’t do this anymore… I can’t keep faking it. It’s over. (I’m talking about summer, of course). Summer and I, we’ve had a good run for the past few months. I’ve tried things that I’d never done before, survived a…

Vanilla Bean and Berry Crumble Ice Cream

It seems like just yesterday that I was happily bidding adieu to the month of July, excited to get my ish together for August, when now all of a sudden it’s basically September and said ISH is still not together. (And by “ish,” obviously I mean all of the delicious ice cream that I wanted…

Orange Creamsicle Ice Cream

This week, as I was carefully pondering which ice cream flavor I’d be featuring in the next post, it suddenly dawned on me that July is pretty much a wrap and August is descending upon us in a mere matter of…(gulp)…hours. You guys! The summer is almost over! When did that happen?! Maybe I’m being a bit glass-half-empty over…

No Churn Cannoli Ice Cream

A few weeks ago, a reader reached out to me to see if I had ever featured any “no churn” ice cream recipes on the blog. Naturally, I was perplexed. No churn? Ice cream? In other words, complete and utter madness. After all, what’s ice cream without, well, the churn? I’ve seen no-churn recipes here…

Mint Chocolate Chip Brownie Ice Cream Cake

Happy birthday, If the Spoon Fits! Two years ago today, I wrote my very first post on this here little blog, and now she’s a TODDLER! Can you believe it?! They grow up so fast 😦 If I’d had more foresight at the time, I would have waited one more day so that my blog’s…

Salt and Pepper Potato Chip Ice Cream

Two very important things happened last week. First, there was this. (The obvious important thing). It’s so important, in fact, that I refuse to formally address it here for a number of reasons. Primarily, I lack the eloquence and literary prowess to appropriately express just how much it means to me that now everyone in…

Chocolate Chip Pancake Ice Cream

With the blog’s second birthday just around the corner (I know, can you believe it?!), I’ve been taking some time to pause and reflect about all the great (and not-so-great) times we’ve shared in the past two years. Old jobs, new jobs, grad school, wedding planning, wedding execution, loss of loved ones. You know my…

Lola’s Carrot Cake Ice Cream

I had an entirely different post planned for this week, but as it often does, life threw me a curveball a few days ago and I needed to make an urgent change of plans. And today, my friends, I urgently need to tell you about Lola. No, Lola wasn’t an estranged great aunt or a…

Boozy Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Float

I have an embarrassing confession to make. I hate traveling. Okay, so maybe not traveling so much as flying. Full disclosure: I find airplanes to be downright terrifying. Sure, long car trips can be tedious, and statistically, are much more dangerous than traveling by plane, but as I’m sure you’ve gathered by now, I’m not…

Mango Ginger Ice Cream with Fresh Mint Syrup

Throughout the course of my blogwork here on ITSF, I’ve made frequent mention of my general disdain and long-standing resentment for fruit-centric desserts. My primary reasons for this particular position are as follows: 1) My love for chocolate trumps all things, except for the obvious must-haves like family, friends, and guinea pig memes. 2) My brain simply…

Dairy Free Dark Chocolate Rocky Road Ice Cream

Once in a while, as I mindlessly go about my business living life in an ice cream induced stupor, I’ll stumble across one of those poor unfortunate souls who, for whatever reason, is forced to abstain from the supreme influence and indescribable magic of dairy products. These conversations become especially poignant when framed within the…
