F*uck Yeah Ice Cream

There are three things in life that I have started to dig since 'growing up'.

1. Chips: I was always been more or a candy kid but now Salt, Crunch, and Grease get me going.
2. Olives: What was once a pit-less black shell of a 'food' is now a multi-colored depth of briny pop flavor pop. 
3. Ice Cream: Simple Magic.

There has always been magic in food. The way bread rises and fills the world with the smell of yeast. How flour and fat can make a pool of steaming gravy. The way the world wonderously gives us food; trees, bushes, and yes animals of all shapes and sizes. 

What wizardry is food!

And Ice Cream is true sorcery. Take a liquid and make it a solid. Creations like Guinness and Gingerbread from Humphry Slocombe (San Fransisco) or Pear and Blue Cheese from Salt & Straw (Portland)  or Grape-nut Raisin from Toscanini's  (Boston). If you don't look at those names and think 'magical' that I encourage you to go to a park and play, right now! And then go get some amazing local ice cream because life is too short and too plain without it. 

So…...I got my very own ice cream maker. Sure she isn't much to look at but she'll do. 

Peanut Butter F*ck Yeah Ice Cream

with mini PB cups and Oreo Cookie chunks 

1 cup Peanut Butter 

2/3 cup Sugar

1 1/2 cups Whole Fat Milk

1 1/2 cups Heavy Cream

1 tsp Vanilla

Peanut Butter Cups - as many as you'd like and chunked into all shapes and sizes

Oreo Cookies- as many as you'd like and chucked up too!

In a sauce pan heat up your milk, heavy cream, and sugar. Heat and mix until the sugar is all melted. Off the burner add your vanilla and plop into another bowl to cool in the fridge for 2-4 hours. It has to be real cool, don't rush it guys! Yeah, I'm looking at you guy with mustache who thinks he is too to shave or shower before noon or let things cool before freezing them. Chill. 

Then put it in your ice cream maker and follow the directions given. Once it's almost done load in the peanut butter cups and Oreos. Put in another container and freeze for another 2 hours or so.  And then eat.
