Creamy dreamy homemade OREO Cheesecake ice cream that takes just a few minutes to prepare and uses only FOUR ingredients! No ice cream maker needed!
It's true! This homemade frozen dessert is made WITHOUT an ice cream machine! Have a hand mixer? You can whip this up within minutes, then it's ready to eat after freezing for about 4 hours. Now that's the kind of easy dessert I'm talking about! 🙂
It's National Ice Cream Month and I am excited to celebrate with you all month! If this means I can eat more ice cream, then so be it! And, guess what? I've been running a lot lately, so I can eat more calories <a-hem> ice cream!
Remember when I told you about two months ago that I started running to prepare for a 5K? And, remember when I told you that I completed that 5K? Well, I haven't told you (unless you follow me on Instagram) that I have been kicking butt in my running mileage lately. I have NEVER in my life thought that I would be a runner, yet this weekend I ran 7.18 miles one morning! What-what!!??
Running has changed my life. Seriously. I'm feeling SO good and have lost all of my baby weight and feel more energized! I might even sport a bikini swimsuit instead of a tank-ini suit this summer if I find one I like! I'm probably sounding like I'm tooting my own horn, but I just want to shout out to the crowds that I have kept up with running and have reached unimaginable goals. I haven't changed the things I eat. Instead, I just watch how much I eat. I was tracking my calories intake using the MapMyFitness app until I lost enough pounds to reach my goal, and now I just am in the habit of eating less. I still weigh myself every week and if I ever do start gaining again, I will use the app again to track my calories.
If anything, I want to share all of this in order to encourage anyone out there to start running. Just #getupandrun! Do it!
Then you can eat some of this ice cream without feeling guilty. 🙂

Oh my goodness! This recipe sounds wonderful! I have always loved ice cream and I've made the homemade vanilla many times in our ice cream freezer, but that has been many years ago. Thank you for this wonderful-sounding recipe! 🙂
