When Life Isn't A Piece of Cake....Bake one.
A couple of weeks ago my husband and I flew back to NYC to tie up a few loose ends and while we were there, we decided to be the tourists we could never be while we lived there and eat at every trendy place we could. Eating out is always the best inspirations for new recipes, and this was no exception! So I came up with this Honey Butter Milk Bread Ice Cream Sandwich!

It's great for sweetening up my coffee or schemering on a fluffy slice of milk bread, and now I've discovered a way to make ice cream with it. And the best part... it only uses 3 ingredients and no ice cream maker necessary!! What? Yes, yes it's true. Super creamy, milky sweet ice cream can be yours with just a few pantry staples.
