Chocolate Chip Almond Nicecream

Chocolate Chip Almond Nicecream

Chocolate Chip Almond Nicecream A quick and easy ice cream recipe that requires no churning! It's also much healthier than shop bought ice cream. I've been craving ice cream a lot recently. My flat is like a sauna and attracts the heat. So much so that it's actually warmer in the flat than it is outside! So you can imagine how hot it feels when it's 30 degrees outside. The only things I've been wanting to eat are ice cream and water melon. I've also been experiencing digestive problems due to stress and the fact that I haven't been eating well the past couple of months. I usually have a massive appetite and I'm always hungry. Now I find myself [...]

Vegan Caramel Magnum

Vegan Caramel Magnum

Vegan Caramel Magnum If this UK heat isn't a good excuse to make my own homemade version of Magnums, then I don't know what is! Not that I need an excuse to make any form of ice cream. I welcome ice cream any time of the year, but I definitely crave it a lot more when it's scorching hot. So hot that even having a fan facing me at all time doesn't really do much to stop the sweating. I posted a picture of these vegan caramel Magnums on my Instagram page yesterday as a teaser and I received such an amazing response, so I just had to post them ASAP. As someone commented "it would be rude not to [...]

Ice Cream Sandwiches 2 ways – Chocolate or Vanilla (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Ice Cream Sandwiches 2 ways – Chocolate or Vanilla (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Ice Cream Sandwiches 2 Ways - Chocolate or Vanilla (Vegan & Gluten-free) We've been really lucky in the UK the last couple of months in that we've had the most amazing weather. There's been so much sunshine we almost don't know what to do with ourselves. None of us is used to this much heat and sun! You'll find some making the most of it and enjoying every second of it, and others complaining about it. I have to say I was one of the latter. Don't get me wrong, I love the sunshine, it's the heat I can't stand. It makes me feel so sleepy, lethargic and irritable. Especially since moving into our new place. It seems our flat just draws [...]

Chocolate Cups with Black Forest Banana Ice Cream

Chocolate Cups with Black Forest Banana Ice Cream

Chocolate Cups with Black Forest Banana Ice Cream Even though summer is now officially over and posts of soups, curries, pies and porridge are saturating the various social media platforms, I think ice cream can never be out of season. Have you ever seen a restaurant menu that doesn't feature ice cream on the dessert menu? No! There is always room for ice cream regardless of the time of year. Chocolate and ice cream are my favourite two treats. There is no question in my mind that they taste even better when paired together. These chocolate cups with black forest banana ice cream are perfect as a post dinner treat, especially at a dinner party. Why serve ice cream in a normal bowl when you [...]

Salted Caramel Protein Ice Cream Doughnuts

Salted Caramel Protein Ice Cream Doughnuts

Salted Caramel Protein Ice Cream Doughnuts These salted caramel protein ice cream doughnuts are made up of a cookie/biscuit base, a protein salted maca caramel centre, a layer of gooey caramel all dipped in chocolate to make them extra decadent and lush! You really NEED to try this recipe! Prior to starting my blog and Instagram page, I never thought I could ever be creative. I grew up in Iraq, a country and environment that didn't encourage creativity. Not because its people chose not to be creative, but because they had been through so much hardship over the decades. We had to endure war after war, economic decline and never ending financial struggles. So over time things like creativity were seen as a luxury. Our [...]

Chai Ice Cream Sandwiches (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Chai Ice Cream Sandwiches (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Chai Ice Cream Sandwiches (Vegan & Gluten-free) I am a self-confessed cookie monster. I just LOVE cookies, biscuits, or whatever else you want to call them. I love the soft kind, crunchy kind and everything else in between! What's better than eating one cookie? Eating two cookies, of course! And what's better than eating two cookies? Sandwiching some ice cream in between two cookies and creating ice cream cookie sandwiches! The first time I tried a cookie sandwich was on our honeymoon. We walked past a cafe in Spain and hubby asked me if I had ever tried an ice cream sandwich. He was like "you HAVE TO try an ice cream sandwich!" when he found out I'd never experienced the joy of [...]

Cherry Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches – Vegan & Gluten-free

Cherry Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches – Vegan & Gluten-free

Cherry Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches This is my first ice cream recipe this summer. Can you believe it?! Why has it taken me so long to finally get my act together and create an ice-cream recipe? I guess it's because the weather has been so up and down, one day it's glorious and sunny, the next it's rainy and gloomy. I love ice cream, but do you know what I love even more than ice cream? ICE CREAM SANDWICHES! I love balancing out the smooth, silkiness of ice cream with the more solid texture of a 'cookie'. I say cookie but the base for these cookie sandwiches are basically made out of dates, cashews and cocoa powder. No baking required! I've teamed up with [...]

Fruity Kombucha Popsicles

Fruity Kombucha Popsicles

We've had a few glorious, hot sunny days here in the UK, but unfortunately it looks like things are set to change on the weekend. I'm pretty sure that will surprise anyone. To make the most of what's left of this gorgeous weather, I made these fruity kombucha popsicles, filled with lots of delicious, juicy in season berries and kiwi for a an extra pop of colour.

Vegan Tahini Popsicles

Vegan Tahini Popsicles

Vegan Tahini Popsicles I'm afraid I might be a little late in sharing this recipe since it seems the sun has decided to retire after a couple of weeks of glorious weather! But I'm one of those people who can eat ice cream any time of the year. It always seems like the perfect light and refreshing after dinner dessert. If you haven't noticed already, a lot of my recent recipes have been based around tahini. I just can't get enough of the stuff! And since my Salted Caramel Tahini Cheesecake was such a hit, I just had to create another tahini treat. (and I have a few more on the way!). These vegan tahini popsicles are so creamy, rich and taste so good! Dipped in homemade [...]
