Creamy homemade ice cream. The perfect accompaniment to Pillsbury Key Lime cookies for ice cream sandwiches, as well as apple pie, or stand alone ice cream sundaes. You can add chocolate sandwich cookies to the mix and create cookies and cream ice cream.

Notes

I highly recommend investing in an ice cream maker. The cost to make homemade ice cream is minimal and it is much more enjoyable than store bought. Easy to make and fun to create different flavors.
