Playing catch up: "Splurge" Saturday



This is my first "splurge" post for Vegan MoFo. Let me warn you now that I wouldn't be a bit surprised if every one revolved around some kind of frozen dessert. I'm crazy over "ice cream." When you're a soy free vegan, there aren't a ton of options, but thankfully some of the ones that are available here in the US are REALLY good. One such option, as mentioned in an earlier post, is Coconut Bliss and I used it to its full potential in this splurge.
First of all let me apologize for the less than stellar picture. It was dark outside when I got this little gem out of the freezer. And I wasn't about to wait to eat it until tomorrow. Now moving on to the good stuff...




Ginger-coconut Cookiewich:
1/4 cup naked coconut variety of Coconut Bliss


Put the Coconut Bliss between the two cookies and wrap tightly (I used press and seal, but regular plastic wrap would probably work just fine). Freeze for at least one hour. Take it out, unwrap it and try to make it last for as many bites as possible. The last bite will make you a little sad.

Point value: 8

Oh, have you tried making your own ice cream? I bet it would be easy to do soy free with some different milks. I can send you some recipes if you have an ice cream maker.

I don't have an ice cream maker. But, I might just have to look into it!
