Cookie Butter Ice Cream – I combined brown sugar and cookie butter into an ice cream and it might be the best homemade ice cream you’ll ever taste.
Cookie butter is my new best friend. We take walks together, talk about our deepest and darkest secrets and we rely on each other for comfort in times of need. It’s true! It is so tasty. Because I have tried it so many ways now, I definitely needed a switch up. That’s where this cookie butter ice cream (brown sugar cookie butter ice cream to be exact) came from.
This ice cream recipe is the ice cream of my dreams. It is creamy, smooth, buttery, nutty, cookie-like and so delicious. I want to have a scoop everyday. It would make me happy. I would have it for breakfast I think. It would be a great way to start the day off.
So if some of you are wondering why in the middle of November I would post this ice cream recipe, it is because no matter when I post it you will absolutely love it. Serve it with your pies and cakes for Thanksgiving or Christmas or have it any time of year and you will for sure enjoy it.

Happily, or maybe unfortunately, I love ice cream all the time. Yours looks seriously amazing.
Thanks so much Elizabeth. I have the same problem happily and unfortunately.
If there’s one thing I’m ALWAYS in the mood for, it’s cookie butter! We are besties. And I think we’d be BFF besties if it were in ice cream form. YUM.
Yes! Isn’t it the best thing ever? And in ice cream form, you will love it even more if that’s possible.
I left a message for you on TK, but I wanted to stop by your blog, also, and tell you that this ice cream sounds so very amazing. Who cares if its Winter around my house. I eat ice cream year round!
Same here! I adore ice cream any time of year. Thank you so much!

Seriously though…
THIS ICE CREAM IS MADE OF DREAMS. I’m obsessed
Thanks so much! I think it is my dream ice cream!!
Love LOVE this! And there is never ever a bad time for ice cream. Love that you used evaporated milk! Did you do skim or regular? Love the idea of keeping it a little lighter, but not sure it that would throw off the richness…
I used regular but you could definitely try the skim to cut down on the calories. Let me know how that works out!
hubba hubba! I need this. Brown sugar stuff. Cookie butter. It’s so me! Was awesome to meet you over the weekend! xoxo
It was so great to meet you Averie! And this ice cream is so yum!
It’s chilly and windy outside but I’d still give just about anything for a large scoop of this ice cream! Isn’t cookie butter the best thing. Ever! 😀
Valerie cookie butter has changed my life for the better. It is cold here and I still have a scoop everyday.
Oh my goodness Jocelyn! This looks divine and would go perfectly with Thanksgiving pie! I love cookie butter too, have to hide it from myself!
Thanks so much! I seriously need to learn how to hide it from myself too!
Mmmmm I can just imagine how this would taste! It’s definitely on my cooking list for the weekend. Great idea with the addition of the gingersnaps, I love those.
Hooray! Thanks so much!
