Homemade Cookie Dough Ice Cream

The Ben & Jerry's cookbook was one of the first cookbooks I ever bought! I actually got it from Vermont at their Head Office whilst I still lived at home with my family so it's actually older than Chloe who helps me in this video. It's a great book and i'd definitely recommend it. There's a lot of awesome recipes from the Vermonster, New York Superfudge Chunk to Rolo ice cream, then some quirky stuff like beer sorbet! We opted for homemade Ben and Jerry's cookie dough ice cream, complete with homemade cookie dough, it took a bit of time to make it, but the ice cream machine does all the hard work! Hope you enjoy our attempt, the taste comparison was scarily accurate!
