Vegan cookie butter ice cream

If you have ever had cookie butter ice cream..... or cookie butter alone, you'll know it's one of the most amazing tastes on the planet. Since going vegan, I really do miss cookie butter ice cream but I found an even BETTER alternative! Completely dairy and egg free!

Ingredients:

-Good for you cookie dough (recipe here)

-Vanilla soy creamy (Trader Joe's vanilla dairy free ice cream!) <- I swear by this stuff.. it's ten times better than dairy ice cream, and this made my transition to vegan TEN times easier.. I don't miss ice cream a bit! You can also use any other dairy free ice cream treat made of soy, almond or coconut milk (can be found at your local healthfood store!).

Directions:

Blend together your cookie dough ingredients in food processor. Scoop some dairy free ice cream into a bowl, and pile on some heaping scoops of your healthy cookie dough. Mix together with a spoon and wallah! If the cookie dough is more of a runny consistency then it will blend very well (to achieve this, use fresh out of the cupboard nut butter that hasn't been in the fridge.. it may be a bit more soft and oily... fresh almond butter worked well for us). If you prefer cookie dough bite sized pieces in your ice cream, just roll up small balls of the cookie dough and spread throughout like you would with a regular topping (using peanut butter or refrigerated thick nut butter works better for this consistency). Enjoy!
