I like to call these snowballs because I first made them on a cold, wintry day after making a snow fort with my little boys. We came in with icicles hanging from our eyelashes and warmed up by baking these beautiful little cakes.

Oh my word! This ice cream is amazing! If you adore ice cream like I do, you must try this recipe. If you don’t have maple extract, you can substitute the seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean (about 8 inches long), or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Vanilla and bacon isn’t quite as delicious as maple and bacon, but it’s not too shabby!
A woman mentioned to me that she didn’t want to be a “stick in the mud” mom for not taking her kids to those frozen yogurt shops that are popping up on every corner. When I was a teenager, I mistakenly ate fat-free frozen yogurt for dessert thinking that it was a safe “diet” food. Nope, it isn’t! At one of the top frozen yogurt chains, the ingredients for vanilla yogurt powder are pure crystalline fructose, dextrose, maltodextrin, nonfat milk, yogurt powder, and micro-encapsulated probiotic (Lactobacillus sporogenes). And have you seen the prices at those places?! I often get questions…
I use this keto take on a classic dessert sauce with my Snickerdoodle Waffles and Vanilla Bean Bread Pudding . It also tastes great on its own; it reminds me of homemade pudding.
