Notes: This truffle ice-cream will not freeze too hard. That’s the truffle part – it textures like a very cold truffle. It’s rich of course, so large servings are not required.

Jip Whips and Smokehouse Almonds are available in most markets. Rich’s is available in Jewish markets, and some large grocery chains in the frozen food section.
