Can I use store-bought cookies instead of making pumpkin molasses cookie chunks from scratch?
Making homemade ice cream is a great way to show off your culinary skills, and the addition of pumpkin molasses cookie chunks makes this pumpkin ice cream recipe truly special. If you don't have the time to make the cookie chunks from scratch, store-bought cookies are a great time-saver. There is a wide variety of store-bought cookies available, so you can choose one that best suits your taste. Be sure to chop the store-bought cookies into chunks before adding them to the ice cream mixture. Store-bought cookies may not be as fun of a story, or have the same flavor or texture as cookies made from scratch, but they can still add a delicious crunch to your pumpkin ice cream.
How long does this pumpkin ice cream with pumpkin molasses cookie chunks stay fresh?
This recipe is easy to store in your freezer and can last for up to two weeks. However, before serving, it is important to allow the ice cream to thaw for about 10 minutes to make it easier to scoop. This will also help ensure that the ice cream does not dry out and the cookie chunks remain crunchy. It is best to use the ice cream within two weeks of making it, otherwise, the texture and flavor may not be optimal. After two weeks, the pumpkin ice cream may start to dry out and the pumpkin molasses cookie chunks may become soggy.
Do I need an ice cream maker to make this pumpkin ice cream with pumpkin molasses cookie chunks?
