We love creamy desserts! And this is the epitome of it. We threw in some lemon cookies too! And created this lemon cookie ice cream bursting with lemon flavor and aroma. What I like best about this fresh lemon ice cream is that is satisfying like dark chocolate. You don’t have to gobble it like ice cream. You slowly lick the spoon and enjoy the punching sour sweetness then another bite and another and you are done with just one scoop. And you want to put the ice cream back in to fridge and have it again after a few hours. Yeah… you are hearing it from someone who just can’t stop eating desserts. The taste is so satisfying. I use to make this lemon mousse very often which has almost the same taste. This ice cream was inspired by it. When lemon juice is added to cream it reacts with it. And makes it slightly thick and fluffy, like it’ll happen when you make cottage cheese. So if you see such a reaction, don’t be surprised. If you like homemade ice cream recipes you must try Oreo ice cream, Strawberry Ice Cream, Mango Ice Cream, Peach Ice Cream, and Orange Ice Cream.

Tips
If you like smooth melting texture in ice cream just skip the cookies. White chocolate chips would good addition too. You may use lime juice instead of lemon, as you like. You can add some cream cheese and make a perfect lemon cheesecake ice cream. Your heavy cream needs to be super chilled to reach the full volume.
Storage
The best thing about lemon ice creams is that you can make them ahead and store them in the freezer. It will be good in the freezer for 6 weeks after that the sugar starts to crystallize and makes the ice cream grainy. But this will be probably gone before 6 weeks. Hungry for desserts? Try these!
