August may be winding down, but that just means it’s time to savor every last scoop of summer. Brandy at Nutmeg Nanny is hosting an Ice Cream Social—two weeks of creative, indulgent frozen treats—and it’s the perfect excuse to eat more ice cream than is strictly reasonable.
I was thrilled when she invited me to join the fun and knew I had to come up with something over-the-top. Enter carrot cake ice cream: all the warm, spiced flavors and tender cake elements you love about carrot cake, folded into creamy, chilled ice cream. For the full recipe and details, see my post on Nutmeg Nanny: Carrot Cake Ice Cream.
If one dessert isn’t enough for you today, I also wrote about Dorie’s Cardamom Crumb Cake for Marcus Samuelsson’s blog—another cozy, spice-forward treat worth trying. Read that post here: Cardamom Crumb Cake.
