Do you do neighbor gifts?

I need some ideas. I'm thinking a nice soup mix if I can find one. I need about 10.

We made cookies to deliver with our Christmas cards.

For my food gifts, I'm giving homemade ice cream baskets.

Taste of Home has some soup mix recipes, I think. Try searching their website. I've also seen some in the Gooseberry cookbooks I have, but I don't think they have recipes online.

Another idea is PW's cinnamon rolls. I can usually get 8-9 round foil cake pans of rolls when I make them.

Tell me about your ice cream. I have my bowl in the freezer and the only time I think about it is right after dinner.

Do you have a recipe? What do you put it in to give?

I always do three flavors of ice cream and put them in these. This year, I am doing peanut butter cup, vanilla bean, and chocolate Andes mint ice creams. I am going to include a small mason jar of homemade hot fudge, and then a cello bag with assorted flavors of those Pirouttes (sp? I just tried these for my first time this year, and they are so yummy!).

Let me know if you want recipes, and I can link you up! I've got two flavors down, and one more plus the hot fudge to go. Then, I'll package them all up this weekend to deliver them.

Recipes please. Thanks so much.

peanut butter cup ice cream

vanilla bean ice cream (Different recipe than I usually use, but I'm going to try it because it doesn't have eggs, which makes it easier.)

For the Andes mint ice cream, I use this chocolate ice cream recipe, replacing the milk chocolate with Andes mints. Then, at the end, I stir in bits of chopped up Andes mints. This is my fave flavor.

Hot fudge is just 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/4 cup butter, and 1 can sweetened condensed milk. Melt it all together. I put it in a jar and keep it in the refrigerator and warm it up when I'm ready to use it.

I've also made the caramel sauce in this post for ice cream before, and it is so good. You could do the same with the caramel in the jar.

I do for my three or four closest neighbors. One year I made White Chocolate Tiger Butter (it's fabulous...kinda like peanut butter fudge). This year I'm giving Moet White Star and baking something.
