What's the Scoop? - Cookies & Cream

You can't go wrong with a classic! There is something about crushed up Oreos in a sweet cream ice cream that makes kids and adults all go crazy. I use Ben & Jerry's sweet cream base and then once it is mostly frozen, I toss in Oreos until I feel it has enough. Some days you may want more cookies, some days you may want less. Just eyeball it until it feels right for you!

Enjoy!
Cookies & Cream Ice Cream

2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups heavy cream or whipping cream
1 cup milk
Crushed Oreos

Whisk eggs for 1 to 2 minutes, until fluffy and light.

Gradually whisk in sugar, then continue until fully blended, about a minute more.

Mix in cream and milk and whisk to blend.

Freeze according to ice cream maker directions. Mix in Oreos at the end.
