Oh yes.  Pumpkin Spiced Ice Cream.  You knew the pumpkin recipes would be coming!    Since it’s still kind of warm here in Texas, I thought I would start off with a cool pumpkin treat: pumpkin spiced ice cream. This pumpkin spiced ice cream is quite good, easy to make, and easy to store.

Much to my surprise, my kids loved this.  They couldn’t stop eating it!  Even my daughter Meadow, who claims to hate pumpkin, ate this up.  If you don’t have an ice cream machine, you can make this recipe into popsicles using these molds.  For those of you wondering if this tastes like coconut, I can tell you that it doesn’t!  Since there are so many spices in here, that drowns out most of the coconut flavor you would normally get.
