This Double Chocolate Ice Cream uses two kinds of chocolate. It has cocoa powder and dark chocolate. I used 100% cacoa chocolate bars in the ice cream which made a dark, rich, and somewhat bitter ice cream. The whole family greatly enjoyed the this ice cream.
We had beautiful weather this week. According to local meteorologists we should have had 90 degree weather already. Instead, we mostly were in the low 80s. That is perfect for going outside and exploring the desert plants that are part of our homestead.
One of my favorite Easter candies is Robin Eggs, chocolate malted eggs with a candy shell. They are only available at Easter. This vanilla malted ice cream flavor with a Robin Eggs candy mix-in is perfect as an Easter dessert!
This week we finally got a little rain on the homestead. It should help the garden and native desert plants grow. I was also able to get a little work done on our kids' playground equipment.
In spite of being sick for part of the week, I was able to get my garden beds finished. We also moved the last of the chickens from the house to the coop.
This Green Tea Ice Cream is made using Matcha green tea powder. It is definitely not a normal ice cream flavor in our part of the world, but it is a great recipe if you are a little adventurous.
