So I’ve been hoarding some Girl Scout Lemonades Cookies. My husband tried to break into the box of cookies a few weeks ago, but I yelled just in time. I don’t even know why he tried, he hates lemon-y things. I don’t think he even looked at the flavor, he just saw “Girls Scouts” and wanted a cookie. So, since I’m making lemon flavored ice cream with this Girl Scout Cookie “Lemonades” Ice Cream Recipe, I know I’ll have it all to myself! Yay! More for me!
Update: He likes it! I guess I’ll have to share!

I think it’s a fresh spring or summer ice cream!

- Following your ice cream maker's instructions, add the lemon mixture and the whipping cream to your ice cream maker.
- In the last 5 minutes of the ice cream maker's churning, add the cookie chunks.
- (If your ice cream maker is too small, pour ice cream into a bowl and fold in the cookie chunks.
