President Ronald Reagan declared July as National Ice Cream month back in 1984, and boy are we glad that he did! I don’t know about you, but in my household we love ice cream. While it’s fun to go out for it, sometimes it’s even better to make it at home. Did you know that you don’t even need an ice cream maker to do it? Below you will find several, easy ice cream recipes that your kids (and you) will love!
