Recipe: 4 Ingredient Oreo Ice Cream

Jump to Recipe -

Oreo Ice Cream recipe from the Savory Sweet Life Cookbook.
4 Ingredient Oreo Cookie Ice Cream

I’ve been sitting on this cookbook for a couple of months now. Not because I don’t like it. Quite the contrary. The Savory Sweet Life Cookbook is a gorgeous book, full of wonderful stories accompanied by family-friendly, unique recipes.

I’ve sat on the cookbook because I know how difficult it is to write and stay focused when you are faced with the loss of a loved one. I’ve tried many times to wrap my head around the beautiful piece of work Alice Currah created, knowing that through it all she was dealing with the sudden death of her father. If nothing else, Alice’s cookbook is proof that even through tragedy, you can be inspired to soldier on with a loved one pushing you on and holding you up from afar.

The Savory Sweet Life Cookbook is a work of love. It’s obvious Alice poured her heart and soul into her book, hoping to inspire you and me to embrace what matters most…gathering around the table with the people most important to us.

It’s not often that I sit down and read a cookbook from cover to cover, but Alice’s writing and photos pulled me in, and once open, the book didn’t close again until I had reached the end. This is a great cookbook for cooks of all ages and levels. If you don’t have it you should definitely add this one to your collection.

The recipe for Oreo Ice Cream that I’m sharing today is just one of many simple recipes you will find. Only 4 ingredients, this Oreo Ice Cream recipe is so creamy and delicious, you’ll want to make it all summer long!

And now, for the Oreo Ice Cream recipe!

    I’m such a huge fan of this book. I was thrilled to get a review copy and it is one of my favorites from this year. With that being said, I think my mother would love a copy of it as well, so that’s what I would do with it if I won.

    Additionally, I have to say how much I adore this ice cream! Seriously wow!

  3. Sarita says

    I would love to win this and give it o my youngest son. He’s the cook in his family and would love a new cook book. Thank you for a chance to win it.

  6. Nicole says

    I have heard so many wonderful statements and reviews of this cookbook – it’s not everyday that a “cookbook” inspires so much more than good cooking!

  7. Amy Tong says

    This book sounds amazing. I’m touched by the story behind and all around this book. I love cookbook and recipes that evolve around family and traditions. I know this will be a cookbook that I would read from cover to the end as well.

  10. Betsy says

    I have been seriously stocking this book at the bookstore, and it has a lot of great recipes.

  12. Jodi says

    I would like to win so I can see what all these instagrams are about from others! Plus I read the chocolate chip cookies in there were really good!

  13. April was in CT now CA says

    I haven’t bought a cookbook in years due to A) I get most of my recipes online now and B) because we move every 4 years and I try my best to keep things down to a minimum. That being said you make me want this book and I’d love to own it. It looks like a keeper, and I’ve only kept 5 of the huge pile of cookbooks I had when I pared down. Can’t wait to try this ice cream!!

  14. Nivedita says

    I have been wanting this for quite some time , since i saw a preview at B&N !!! Have my fingers crossed and hope i get to win it !!!! Wud make a lovely present for myself for my b’day 😛

  19. Susan H says

    I need some new recipes. I am tired of cooking my old stand bys. Time to shake up the dinner table with some new dishes!

  21. Caitlin C. says

    Food is an art form and this book looks like the book that will inspire me throughout the next school year. Teaching theatre, I find that I get drained creatively, but the images in this book will inspire me to make the culinary creations that refuel.

  24. Erika Milstead says

    My daughter and I love cooking recipes from your site. She has had feeding tube most of her life due to a traumatic birth. This summer she has been eating on her own for the first time. She is five and her palate is so wide open. Your recipes are so wholesome and flavorful not mention straight forward that is perfect for to help me in the kitchen. I would love to have a copy to give her when she is older to remind her of early days of cooking.

  26. Kristen M. says

    What a fabulous recipe! Can’t wait to give it a try. I just love trying new cookbooks that inspire you to try different things in the kitchen. Fun times!

  43. Carol says

    The truth is, I have purchased this book, tried several recipes in it even. But I have given it away. Then I bought two more as gifts for others. I still don’t have one for myself. It really is a nice cookbook. The photographs are great, the recipes easy. The Nutella Molten Lava Cakes made way more than we needed, but discovered that nuking one for 15 seconds works…still molten middles! The Cinnamon Rolls were very good, as were the Chocolate Chip Cookies and the Ribs.

  50. Kerri says

    Last month, I totally revamped my diet and this cookbook would help me stay on track, while not getting bored!

      I tried the ice cream recipe tonight and my coconut milk kept separating and turned out a little weird texture-wise. It tasted ok. I’m wondering if I need to warm up the coconut milk first so it all becomes homogeneous? I used half as many crushed oreos and that was a good amount for us. Thanks for the recipe!

  87. Alicia says

    I love to try new cookbooks. I just haven’t had the funds or been to a book store in forever to pick up any new ones. Thanks for the chance.

  92. Maria says

    Love to win and send to my daughter who is just starting to get comfortable in the kitchen..she sends me pictures of her dinners. It’s so cute to watch her and listen to her talk about recipes.

    Ice-cream is my new favorite this year! The first time I tried it, I just made it plain and didn’t really like it. But now I’ve made a couple different versions of ice-cream with it and I’m in love! I’m always looking for more variations, Thanks! 🙂

    Thanks for reminding everyone in every way that food, family and life are so connected. Thanks for offering to share Alice’s book with one lucky person. Her recipes are right on, and this ice cream is one that is simple, yet perfect. It would trick any non-vegan any day.
