While I could (and do) eat ice cream year round, there is something about eating ice cream in the summer that is magical. These hot and humid days are just screaming for ice cream to cool us down. A little over a year ago, I purchased a Cuisinart ice cream maker and to be honest this summer is the first time I’ve started experimenting with it. If you are fans of strawberry ice cream, you need to try this recipe out. This recipe is used with coconut milk instead of regular milk which I love. Including the coconut milk, this recipe requires just four ingredients!
If you make homemade ice cream, I would love to hear what kinds you have made and if you have any easy recipes! Please leave a comment with all of your ice cream making tips and tricks!

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
