Gluten Free Coffee Semifreddo

Gluten Free Coffee Semifreddo

Ice cream makers are perfect for making semifreddos, a semi-frozen dessert. Coffee semifreddo is a dessert I enjoy serving dinner guests for a little pick-me-up/caffeine boost, thought it is lightly flavored. You can make the pudding in advance and keep refrigerated. Then about 20 minutes prior to serving, freeze it up in your ice cream maker and fold in the whipped cream. Those who do not make homemade desserts are usually fascinated with the process and thoroughly enjoy this light treat. You can vary the recipe by adding various mix-ins.

Death By Gluten Free Carob Ice Cream

Gluten Free Carob Ice Cream

You know the saying, “death by chocolate”? There are a few brands of ice cream named “death by chocolate” as well. Currently, I am avoiding chocolate and had a craving for some. It had been over two months since I had any. So, I finally got around to ordering some carob powder and created a new carob ice cream recipe. I started with my Rich Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe (which should be named, “death by chocolate”). Then I made it a little richer to make up for the lack of chocolate. I love it and so does my chocolate loving husband! If chocolate keeps you awake at night, note that you can eat this any time because carob does not contain caffeine.

Gluten Free Rocky Road Ice Cream Sandwiches

Homemade Gluten Free Ice Cream Sandwiches

While this recipe is not new, I added some topping options, or shall I say sidings, as they go onto the sides of these delicious gluten free ice cream sandwiches. I did not use any marshmallows, which is typical of rocky road, but you can add them to the ice cream, if desired. Just be sure to use gluten free marshmallows such as Jeff Puff. I usually find the large Jeff Puff marshmallows at my local store and then cut them into smaller pieces when necessary.

This time, another change I made was that I made the sandwiches thinner, to cut back on calories. I hope they keep you cool this summer. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Rocky Road Ice Cream Sandwiches”

Lemon or Lime Sorbet – Palate Cleansers

Lime Sorbet Palate Cleanser

In a four or more course meal, palate cleansers are used to cleanse your palate of the flavors that linger from the previous courses. This way, you are able to experience the true flavor of the next dish without any aftertaste affecting your taste buds. It is similar to the method that wine tasters use before tasting another variety of wine. In France, palate cleansers are also used to improve digestion and to stimulate the appetite.

Vegan Pumpkin Ice Cream

This is more of a sherbet than a vegan pumpkin ice cream, but is still extremely delicious for a diary free version. Since its development, I have discovered that adding one teaspoon of xanthan gum added to ice cream creates a more chewy texture. In this recipe you would need to mix about 1/2 teaspoon of gum with the oil. Note, that this is not a new recipe, but the original, published in 2010, seems to have vanished from this site. Enjoy!

Gluten Free Fried Ice Cream

Have you ever had gluten free fried ice cream, or http://ir-na.amazon-adany fried ice cream before? If not, you’re in for a fun and delicious treat. I love making this for guests. It is a real conversation maker. Traditionally, they are made with ground corn flakes, but if you cannot find any such as Glutino Corn Rice Flakes, you can use your favorite cereal such as Gluten Free Rice Krispies and others. Even ground gluten free graham crackers will work. You have a choice of either grinding the cereal finely or crushing them so they are left in little pieces. For a thicker batter, I have provided a link to my Gluten Free Churros batter, if you’re up for experimenting. Meanwhile, enjoy this delicious Mexican treat.

Gluten Free Ice Cream Sandwiches

My quest to develop a gluten free ice cream sandwich took much more time than I expected. I first tried to adapt my own moist Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Chocolate Cake recipe. I just left out the leaveners. However, it turned out very gummy and too chewy. In my search to adapt a gluten ice cream sandwich recipe, all recipes fell short of my expectations by viewing their photos. I couldn’t even turn to Martha Stewart or Joy of Baking, two of my favorite cooking sites. Continue reading “Gluten Free Ice Cream Sandwiches”
