I was spoiled today from morning til evening with delicious meals from my husband for Mother's Day. For dessert he made crepes and my oldest daughter pulled out this no church two ingredient ice cream that she made. The ice cream went into crepes with more strawberries and Nutella than you have probably ever dreamed of.
This ice cream is decadent. (And not overly sweet like store brand ice cream.) My kids decided I should stop buying ice cream and stock up on whipping cream and sweetened condensed milk. My daughter says you can add vanilla extract or other extracts to the mix or whatever add-ins appeal to you like chopped cookies or fruit.
no church two ingredient ice cream
14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups whipping cream
My daughter says she poured the two ingredients into a bowl and used a hand mixer to whip it up until it formed soft peaks. She poured it into a freezer safe bowl and froze it overnight.
We had a La La Land party because we had some celebrating to do so I looked online for party ideas and found this easy piano! I didn't know where to find white chocolate kit kat bars so I texted a friend and what do you know- with her help I found them on the first attempt. That's something to sing about. (Tip: Fred Meyer)

All you do is line them up on a tray- as long as you want. This made a really easy alternative to a birthday cake!!
tip: how to cut brownies
This double chocolate mint brownie recipe is one of my most loved and requested recipes and they're easy to make so I like to take them to parties, potlucks, etc. The only thing I didn't like about them was cutting them into bars...until now. I shared this recipe with a friend and she came back and asked if I had ever cut them with a plastic knife. The answer was no. Why would I think to use a plastic knife! She's right- a plastic knife cuts them beautifully! I just had to share this little tip if you should decide to make THESE wonderful brownies. Taking two pans of these delicious brownies to school this morning for teacher appreciation was a cinch.
