Cookies and Cream Ice Cream 1

This week is going to be as awesome as Oreos cookies. Why? Because, this week on my blog, it`s Cookies and Cream Week!! Yep, WEEK.

You`ve guessed it, this whole week, I will be sharing Cookies and Cream/Oreo recipes. Why? Because I love love love Oreos. I loved them as a kid and I love them now. My sisters love them and my friends love them...so naturally, I`ve tried a lot of recipes involving this delicious cookie. ♥


Since, I`m addicted to ice cream, cookies and cream ice cream is a DEFINITE MUST! I found this recipe on baked Bree and it`s a FANTASTIC recipe to kick start this week!

When my boyfriend and friends tried it they said this: "Lynna, this is the best thing you`ve ever made!"

Um, what?

The best thing. I`ve EVER made?

I don`t know if this is a good or bad thing for me. I`ve made plenty of desserts before and I liked most of them...a LOT.

However, I must admit, this is definitely one of my favorite ice cream recipes! I`m just happy to have found such an amazing recipe! Hehe~

Forget what you need make, make this now. I PROMISE you, this recipe will make you glad you did.
