Strawberry Cookie Dough Ice Cream

WE'VE MOVED! Now redirecting you to our new page.

I go to a small school. But what we lack in size, we make up for in quality. Of academics, of campus culture, campus aesthetics, extracurricular programs, etc...sure, of course. But also: food. Our cafeteria boasts being ranked as one of the best college cafeterias in the country. And I can tell you from experience - both in our cafeteria and in the cafeterias of other schools I've visited - that it deserves it. 

My school is great for a lot of reasons, but one of the biggest ones for me is the cookie dough ice cream served in our campus coffee shop cum cafe. (I'm only exaggerating a little.) Seriously, I have never tasted better. Not even Ben and Jerry's. I easily polish off one of their over-the-top (literally, towering over the top of the cup), pint-size servings on a regular basis during the school year, usually either leering over my laptop in the library or lounging in front of a romcom with my friends for a well-deserved mental break/studying reward. 

Suffice to say, I have a weakness for cookie dough ice cream. And what was once merely a physical weakness has now been compounded by becoming sentimental as well. (I can just see my friends and I at our 10-year reunion, reminiscing not over professors or freshman corridors, but that dang cookie dough ice cream.) So when I first saw a recipe for strawberry cookie dough ice cream, I knew I had to try it. It's taken me over a year to actually get around to it, but hey, better late than never, right?
