IMG_2955

Iam excited to announce that April is Giveaway month at Adventures in the Kitchen.   Each week in April there will be a new giveaway.  The first is an Ice Cream Party Pack with a Boston Warehouse Ice Cream Lazy Susan, The Perfect Scoop by David Lebovitz and a pink ice cream scoop by Zyliss.

The Ice Cream Lazy Susan will be a fun addition to any barbeque or kids party.  The Perfect Scoop is filled with delicious ice cream recipes.  I am definitely going to try the Malted Milk Chocolate and Chocolate Raspberry Ice Cream this summer.

You can enter through Friday April 10 and I will announce the winner Saturday, April 11, 2009.

To kick off the ice cream giveaway I made Lemon Buttermilk Sorbet from David’s book.  Spring is here and what a perfect ending to a meal.  This is a super easy recipe with 5 ingredients and zesting 1 lemon.  Who knew it could be this easy.

In a medium saucepan combine the water and the sugar. Grate the lemon zest into the pan. Heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and let it come to room temperature, then place the syrup into the fridge until thoroughly chilled.

Whisk the buttermilk into the syrup and then whisk in the lemon juice. Freeze in an ice maker per instructions.

    Asking my favorite ice cream flavor is like asking a mother which is her favorite child! Forced to choose I would say chocolate peanut butter. Don’t tell the others!

    mint chocolate chip!

  • http://metropolitanmama.net Stephanie

    Favorite ice cream flavor? That’s really asking too much. There are too many to choose from. ;)

    Cherry Chocolate always “tops the charts” for me. And lately I really love Dark Chocolate. And nothing beats pure Vanilla ice cream with mix-ins (raspberries or blueberries or dark chocolate shavings)…

    That Lazy Susan is so fun, by the way. I know our 2-year-old would get a kick out of it. It’s the perfect party accessory.
