Last night in Lancaster County we got a dusting of wet snow. Not much, but enough to remind us that winter is fast approaching. Yes, winter is coming. It’s hard to believe isn’t it? Good thing ice cream tastes just as good on a cold December night as it does on a hot summer day!
But before we dive into winter, let’s not forget about Thanksgiving. In celebration of Thanksgiving, below are links to every ice cream-related recipe we’ve ever featured here on the Ice Cream Journal. Hopefully you can find one (or two) in there that you might want to feature at this week’s Thanksgiving feast!
Mocha Frappe – This coffee/milkshake drink might be nice as a dessert after dessert!
Fried Ice Cream - This will bring a little south-of-the-border flavor to your feast. And yes, it really is fried.
Tin Can Ice Cream - It probably won’t wow the in-laws, but this recipe might help keep the kids busy!
Ice Cream Truffles – Unlike the tin can ice cream, this one is guaranteed to wow ‘em.
Dreamsicle Ice Cream Pie - This is easy to make, which make
s it a nice recipe for when you’ve been too busy working on the rest of the menu.
Ice Cream Baked Potato - This is another one the kids will love.
Ice Cream Loaf – It’s a loaf of ice cream…need we say more?
Peanut Ice Cream Squares – Aunt Edna’s apple pie doesn’t hold a candle to these heavenly little squares.
Hot Fudge Ice Cream Dessert – The name pretty much says it all.
Crunchy Ice Cream Dessert – This is a layered ice cream dessert using cereal for the “crunch.”
Holiday Ice Cream Snow Balls – These are a little bit like the ice cream truffles.
Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie – This one was posted last year around Thanksgiving and is guaranteed to give regular pumpkin pie an inferiority complex.

If you’ve got a technical question about the ice cream making process or some other inquiry about the nuances of America’s favorite treat, chances are Ernie has the answer. He might not be able to answer all questions, but he’ll try his best and some may be featured on the Ice Cream Journal.
We got snow up in Berks too. I got some TH in my freezer, so I had to pick up some of your egg nog since it finally came in! One month to enjoy another of your delicacies! Thanks
Congrats on the first snow. My little nephew is in the Philly area and was thrilled with it. My sister said that they made a 1 foot tall snowman!
No snow here in Jersey yet, but boy does it feel cold enough sometimes. Won’t stop me from eating my TH though!!! Thanks for the AWESOME recipes!! You guys rock!!!
Thanks for the recipes and suggestions.
I’m making the family meal this year and so always looking for ideas to make it more inviting. I’m in NJ too!
Anyone ever suggest cranberry pumpkin ice cream for Thanksgiving?
No snow here in NC for a while, I’m sure. How about Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream as a feature flavor?
I can’t seem to find time to cook with 3 young children but I may just have to try a few of these recipes. I’m sure they’ll be work the effort.
Wow, hard to believe that it is snowing in your area. Here in Lynchburg, it is in the 60′s with not a hint of snow in site. Love T-Hill ice cream!!!! Hello to Mistletoe, how are the moose tracks? Hope you don’t get a sinus headache and have to leave work early on Wednesday!! Moose tracks ROCK!!!!
Well folks, it was fun while it lasted. The snow is all melted off now and has been replaced by intermittant cold drizzle. If there’s one thing worse than drizzle, it’s “internmittant cold drizzle.”
We hope you enjoy the recipes. Let us know if any of them work out for you!
Here in Connecticut we just had a light dusting of snow this am. Nothing sways me from my TH ice cream after getting home from work and watching the news. I always have my dessert, while my meal is cooking. Keep up the great work. Make some more of that peanut butter ripple and send it to CT
We got our first snow too! Thanks for the recipes they will certainly come in handy for the upcoming holiday season.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
I’m making the Turkey Hill recipe for Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie by Betty Esbenshade tonight. Both of my roommates are working on Thanksgiving Day tomorrow, so we’re having T-day dinner tonight!
Those recipes look great!
Thanks so much for the recipes. I just served holiday ice cream truffles and everyone loved them. Thanks Turkey Hill!
I am making a copy of the recipes for my mom the greatest cook in the whole world!!!!Hope you all had a wonderful ThanksGiving!!!
I’m thinking about bittersweet chocolate and candies orange peel…wouldn’t that be a great flavor?
Turkey Hill ice cream and yogurt is an awesome dessert on it’s own! I have family members who travel up from the south and they many times remind me, “have some of that Turkey Hill ice cream on hand” and are not reluctant to give me flavor requests.
I have ice cream drink that uses lemon duetto, lemon chella liquar , and lemon pie.I would recomond that you server this in small cup. The pie and lemon duetto should be set up in the cup with the pie on the bottom , a small scoop of duetto I use a mellon ball spoon and then a drile of cella on the pie and edge of the cup. the trick is to use a small amount of cella and to let it set up a few mintuwes before you serve. You better have a second pie on hand because once your friends try it they will want a much bigger serving.
There isn’t a flavor of Turkey Hill that I do not enjoy. I have bought this product since its been on the market and always have it in the freezer. My grandkids love it too.
It hasn’t been long that Turkey Hill has been in Connecticut, but I love lots of the flavors, and it is the brand I buy most. We mostly like Mint Chocolate Chip and have looked all around for the Jets ice cream without luck this year.
I want to thank you for the beautiful calendar. The calendar will go up in my office. I also want to thank you for the coupons that you sent to me. My wife and I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
all the flavors of the ice cream are good especially the mint chip. What Calendar is Leonard Sonders talking about.
I wish that a lot of the flavors would go on sale more often also.
I enjoy the comments and have picked up some good suggestions. I hope I win the ice cream….We love TURKEY HILL !!!!
best part of the day is getting home&going into the freezer&getting my hands on my turkey hills duetto any flavor
the flavors at turkey hill are the ultimate!
the recipes sound great can’t wait to try
The puzzle is a great prize! Yes, I must agree with you that sans the colorful cows, that is a definite scene reminiscent of Lancaster County.
