Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Ice Cream – words can’t even begin to describe how luscious this homemade ice cream is. It’s a must try recipe!
Summer is winding down, but it’s not too late to enjoy a bowl of homemade ice cream, especially one as tasty as this recipe! Although to be perfectly honest, I can enjoy a bowl of ice cream in the dead of winter. Any other ice cream die hards out there?
I usually prefer some type of chocolate in my ice cream, but my husband prefers fruit flavors. He thought that this ice cream was spectacular, and I have to agree with him. Even without a hint of chocolate, this ice cream is on my top five list of all ice cream flavors I’ve ever tried! It is unbelievably yummy!
I have always been a fan of blueberries and lemon together, but I’ve never had them in ice cream. It is a match made in heaven. And of course the cream cheese makes the ice cream so rich and creamy. Oh my word. I’m drooling just thinking about it.
This is the kind of ice cream that you want to hide in the freezer and eat after the kids are in bed. Because trust me, you won’t want to share it! But just for the record, I did let my kids have some. I’m not a totally horrible person. 😉
